Sorry, it's pronounced /sēn/.

Like 'sea' with an 'n' afterwards.

My mother saw a dolphin in the sea. She thought it was clever combining 'sea' and 'dolphin' and have it pronounced as 'seen', the past participle of 'see'.

It was a beautiful scene.

So is that actor's name pronounced "Seen Been" or "Shawn Bawn"?

My brain still reads "Sean" as seen even though my mouth knows to pronounce it shawn.

Super common name. Still have to spell it out for people.

Or was it shöen?

I remember (from somewhere...) someone once said their name was pronounced as say-on. Sorta like how séance is pronounced.
