Brendan Fraser, the Canadian-American actor, has often been the subject of confusion surrounding the pronunciation of his name. In an effort to demystify his moniker, Fraser has taken to various media outlets to clarify the correct way to say his name. Many people have been pronouncing it as “Fray-zer” when it should be “Fraser,” with the “s” sounding like a “z.”

Fraser has joked that his name is “spelled like it’s supposed to be said, but not pronounced like it’s spelled.” Despite the confusion, Fraser’s talent as an actor has never been in question. From his breakout role in “Encino Man” to his critically acclaimed performance in “The Mummy,” Fraser has proven himself to be a versatile and talented actor.
