    Kamala Khan is Pakistani.

    Kamala Harris is Indian/Jamaican.

    I would bet that there are regional pronunciations. Plus, that’s not unique. I’ve met three different women from southern California named Andrea and they all had different pronunciations.

      Okay. Thank you for taking my question seriously. I know it’s silly, but it was bugging me.

      I need to go to bed.

      I was going to question your “Andrea” claim but then I thought about it and I can think of three similar but different ways to pronounce it. Curious how many ways there are.
