14. That's how I thought of it for at least a year after I joined DU.
Then one day I had an earth shattering revelation about how it's really pronounced. :D

9. Oh shit - have I been saying it wrong?
I've heard one DUer say "Five again"
Another DUer say "Five-gan"

I've always thought it was Florida Vegan.

11. you've had it right
I always thought the L was an I. It was forever before I figured out "vegan" was part of his name. I just figured Five and Gan meant something :shrug:

15. ..
Thanks for the justification. :rofl:
I pronounce it "flea-gan" because "fla-vee-gan" is too much work.
