How to pronounce Xamarin

project community-consensus

ZAM uh rin /ˈzæmərɪn/ mp3

Xamarin is most commonly pronounced "ZAM uh rin" (/ˈzæmərɪn/). This is the widely-used reading among engineers, though edge cases exist.

The X is a /z/: ZAM-uh-rin /ˈzæmərɪn/, stress on the first syllable. Not 'eks-uh-rin'.

Pronouncing project and product names correctly avoids the small but persistent friction of being gently corrected during standups, conference Q&As, and team calls. Hearing the word a few times locks in the right reading better than reading IPA ever will. Pronounce is a community-maintained dictionary — every entry tagged with a confidence level and (where possible) a citable source.
