Which pronunciation do you use for your first name, and do you say the S?

EE-V(s)

I-ve(s)

IY-V(s)

Like Adam and Eve. Yves is pronounced without an s at the end. Typical French to have silent letters at the end of words and names!

Every time I get that question "like Adam and Eve" I always respond "no: Eve but French masculine"

Challenges of living is the bible belt with a French first name.

I also answer to very long pauses...
