How do YOU pronounce aran

Like zakum, khaini, and mesos, aran seems to have multiple pronouciations.

At first i said it like Ay-ran but then i got used to Aaron/Erin

Aaron/Erin. I can't pronounce it "Ah-ran" without it sounding awkward.

Uh-Ron.
No real way of saying it until Nexon decides to teach us how to say it, since they invented this class.

the original korean word for aran sounds into Ah-Rahn
Aaron Erin Airon

But I guess it's supposed to be pronounced

Can be pronounced two ways. Air-ran or Ah-rahn. Guess the correct one would be Ah-rahn though...

Ah-Rahn if I'm talking to Koreans and Ahr-rehn (Aren?) if I'm talking to English speakers.

tah-KOH

lol, but serious:

The commercials that aired suring aran released said:

"Experience the power of uh-RAHN!"

So I assume that's the official Nexon pronunciation.

Though they will forever be air-ren to me.

It's supposed to be pronounced "uh-RON" (as stated by a few people before me), but myself and Maplers I know IRL say "uh-RAN". Habit, I suppose. I didn't know it was uh-RON until after I was already used to uh-RAN.
