Spanish-English Bilingual Boy Names

These names work in both English and Spanish. Sometimes the pronunciation is the same, and sometimes each name has its own pronunciation in each language. Note that the "uh" sound (as in uh-MAN-duh for Amanda) does not exist in Spanish. It is substituted with the "ah" sound, leading to very similar pronunciations in both languages.  All pronunciations are written in phonetic English with stressed syllables in capital letters.
