Is Brandon spelled as Μπράντον or Βρανδον?

Question

Hello got a few mixed answers on how to spell Brandon in Greek. I am customizing a name necklace, need to be accurate!

Thank you so so much!

Answer 1

The sound of the English letter "B" is "ΜΠ" in Greek.  Therefore "Brandon" is spelled as "Μπράντον".

I assume the intonation is on the first syllable (Bra), therefore the accent mark is on "Μπρά".

In the same way "book" would be spelled "μπουκ" and not "βουκ".

The sound of the English letter "V" is "Β" in Greek.  This may be the source of confusion.
