That may have something to do with the fact that most English words have e before a. Such as eat, or great, or treat, etc. etc. And that it sounds more like Tyreal than it does Tyrael, even if it's spelled the other way around.
lol Throbblefoot! You can kill me now. Just tell me where you are first, so that I don't get backstabbed, I would prefer to die from the front, but as I cannot see, I do not know frpm which direction to expect death.

As far as I know, most of the time in English the combination "ea" makes the sound "ee" as in eel, although "great" is an exception, as there are with every language rule in English.
How is "Tyrael" pronounced anyway? I've a tendancy to pronounce it tie, like a bow-tie, rail, like a hand-rail. Correct me if I'm wrong, please.

I wasn't talking about how it's pronounced, as he can't hear us, I am talking about the spelling like he said.
You are, it's Tear-e-ull if I described that correctly. I know as the name is from D2 and they say the name in the videos.

Wow, how misleading. I'd probably end up spelling that Teerial or Teirial or Tearial or Tirial or Terial. xD How interesting.

It probably has roots elsewhere. Like Mephisto, which is short for Mephistopheles, the first general of lucifer supposedly. And also in D2:
"The skies shall rain fire, the seas will become as blood, the righteous shall fall before the wicked, and all creation shall tremble, before the burning standards of hell!" The first part of that is a revelation from the bible.
