I wonder how Gloranthan names have changed since the Dawn? For that matter, is Pavis really pronounced the way Pavis would have spoken his name?
/// Interesting. To me (I'm French), it's always been Pah-vis. Never heard it otherwise. I realize I never heard you furriners say it out lout : Pay-vis maybe ? Plus different cultures have different spelling. I remember a malkioni legend mentioning the savage land of Pracks, ruled by the eransachula Genner, etc. I love these possible sources of confusion and discovery.
Also, I remember meeting a GM who said "Lankor Mee" when I said "Lanchor (german hard ch) My". We had an untold contest, to see which way to say it the other players would pick instinctively.
