Notes

• The name Eilistraee does not have an absolutely fixed, universally agreed-upon pronunciation—different fans (and even some official sources) have rendered it slightly differently over the years. However, the most common or widely accepted versions tend to be:
  • “EYE-liss-TRAY” (three syllables)
  • “EYE-liss-TRY” (if one prefers a slightly sharper final sound)

One may also occasionally hear variations like “AY-liss-tray,” but “EYE-liss-TRAY” is the one heard the most among Dungeons & Dragons players.
