I just know them when I see them, don't care for pronuciation. Last time me and my bro used to pronounce 'capensis' as 'cap-NEE-sis' don't know why, it just came into our heads at first glance and it stuck, however luckily not until now as some cpers would think weirdly of us...

I usually pronounce it somewhere in between EL-are-wiss and EL-er-wiss

What does it mean? Is it an anagram of something? Some of these forum names are creative and I am curious of their derivation.
