Neil Gaiman and Other Haunting Questions

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has this question.

How do you pronounce Gaiman?

It's common enough that it is the very first question under his FAQs. I'm reading Norse Mythology and enjoying it thoroughly, but this is my first venture into the Gaimanverse and the sight of his last name on the book spine nagged at me until I had to search for it through my trusty Swagbucks and satisfy my curiosity. I've heard people say it before, but better to get it from the horse's mouth.

I'm not going to answer the question for you; you'll have to check for yourself. Although it turns out I had it right, of course.

On a side note, Marvel has been completely misleading us about how the Norse pantheon works. What else have they been hiding?
