However, the panther is not pronounced that way. Guenhwyvar, Drizzt's panther, is an old spelling of "Guinevere", King Arthur's wife (you can hear that here). Gygax is pronounced "guy-gaks" (see below for more info on that). It's a current spelling, not an old-timey spelling. Gaol is the British spelling of "jail" and is pronounced the same way.

They have different letters in them and everything, just like other words which aren't the same words as each other do. "Grace" (which means "mercy") and "Gras" (which means "fat") are entirely different words. People will often gleefully tell you it's pronounced "coo de grah" because of the way "gras" is pronounced in "Mardi Gras". The Big Ones Coup de Grace is the subject of many arguments.
