Now this might sound silly up front, but bear with me. I currently just think of xoxoxoBruce as, well, Bruce. However, for a short while after slipping into the Cellar I had an association building with his name, similar to the way Flint has a lock on something once he "hears" it a certain way. For some ridiculous reason I had tried to pronounce Bruce's whole username and came up with something along the lines of zo-zo-zo-Bruce. This made me think of Jimmy Page's symbol from the fourth Zeppelin album. In all honesty, I wonder if anyone else has ever tied Bruce to Zoso.

I think of xoxoxoBruce as "hugs and kisses Bruce," whatever that means. (or sometimes as XOB = sob)

I always pronounce it 'Bruce' but I also get a mental image of Oxo gravy cubes.

I prefer the one-syllable pronunciation, "uht". Rhymes with BUTT.

that is what I thought, but since I want neither from him, so just Bruce.

Ahhhh, after a little hint, I get it now . Chemistry wasn never my strong suit. In fact, I rather detest it...

blue- curr-aaw-ko. (totally wrong huh?)
Completely blundered on the rich thing too. I thought Lee- vie.
And finally- Rk'z- en-rage.(still completely unsure)

Hopefully everyone knows cicero, I say siss-er-o.....And even I pronounce it wrong.
It's really pronounced Chik-er-O. It means doo-doo. (cow) Which is why he was advised to change his name before his stint in politics......
