I was just engaged in a thought.

which word do you emphasize when you see this name?

I read it like a name and hugger is the last name...so I say the first two names quick and emphasize the last.

do you emphasize the first name?
JOSHUA treehugger

or the middle?
 
I think the emphasis is evenly distributed though a little more may lie on the "thing"

I always thought the emphasis was on "sweet"


agreed.


i read joshua tree hugger like a name though, so it's like joshuatree hugger, not with that much emphasis though. i believe, however, it's because i have familiarity with the joshua tree and so am more inclined to put the emphasis on what is unfamiliar or what distinguishes it from just the joshua tree.


examples: martin luther king JUNIOR, george W bush, tony BLAIR

or i'm just drunk. whichever.

Now, out of curiosity, what do you emphasize when you see MY name?

Oh.. whenever i think of your name... my head goes Bono falsetto like the song "Oh-o-oh the SWEETEST thing" :wink:
