RE: Klingon translation of Michael



Greetings, Michael. My name is pagh, and I am the current Beginners'
Grammarian for the list. It's my job to help new people learn Klingon.
Whenever you have a post you want help with, mark it for my attention with a
KLBC in the subject line.

The way a Klingon would pronounce your name is probably <mayqel>. As SuSvaj
has pointed out, this is how Marc Okrand (the creator of the language and
author of The Klingon Dictionary) spells Michael Dorn's name in Klingon.

The FAQ has a good section on names:
