13.0. "Diedrich" by 3158::DAVIS (Grins) Tue Jul 15 1986 18:50

    My nephew's name is Garth Diedrich, but the Garth is mispronounced
    here in the States... his middle name carries over well...

    I would pronounce Garth as 'garth', how is it mispronounced in the
    states?
    
    How should it be pronounced?
    
    What country of origin is it?
    
    What does it mean, it sounds 'strong', may be earthy.

    Sorry, dunno the meaning and while I believe the origin is
    Dutch, I'm not sure... what's missing here is the gutteral
    pronunciation...
