Dwayne Johnson and Auli’i Cravalho pronouncing her name

  • 0:00 - 0:03
    (♪) away away, we are explorers (♪)
  • 0:03 - 0:05
    I have heard many other versions
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    of my name
  • 0:07 - 0:08
    and I have loved listening to them
  • 0:08 - 0:11
    but getting it right is always appreciated
  • 0:11 - 0:13
    So its "ow" like you stub your toe
  • 0:13 - 0:15
    "Lee" like Bruce Lee
  • 0:15 - 0:16
    and then you add another "ee"
  • 0:16 - 0:18
    so its "Ow" "Lee" "Ee"
  • 0:18 - 0:19
    and believe it or not
  • 0:19 - 0:21
    I actually also have a tough last name
  • 0:21 - 0:23
    Cravalho (Cruh-vol-yo)
  • 0:23 - 0:24
    Cravahl-you?
  • 0:24 - 0:26
    No, Cravalho
  • 0:26 - 0:27
    Cravalho, Cravalho like that
  • 0:27 - 0:29
    yeah
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    No? Cravalho, Cravalho, Cravalho
  • 0:31 - 0:34
    sure--yeah
  • 0:34 - 0:37
    Well I've been saying Auli'l Craval-ho
  • 0:37 - 0:39
    I've been butchering it--I had no idea
  • 0:39 - 0:41
    Thank you though
  • 0:41 - 0:42
    You don't need the -ho like that
  • 0:42 - 0:44
    (laughing)
  • 0:44 - 0:47
    I've been saying it awful by the way
  • 0:47 - 0:50
    I just realized that
  • 0:50 - 0:52
    But I've been saying it with confidence
  • 0:52 - 0:53
    Dwan-ye?
  • 0:53 - 0:55
    That's half the battle
