Auto Attendant name Pronunciation
- Oct 18, 2023
Hello StevePanton
Currently there is no way to correct the play back of the user name when a caller ask for an individual as this is pronounced by artificial intelligence.
Hello StevePanton
welcome to the Microsoft community, My name is Yakubu Suleman I'll be happy to help you today;
I understand that you are looking for a way to have the user record names for the dial by name feature
People can search for others in their organization with their voice (speech recognition). They can also reach anyone in Active Directory by saying the full or partial name of the person they are trying to locate. Using voice inputs can recognize names in various formats, including FirstName, LastName, FirstName + LastName, or LastName + FirstName.
You can enable speech recognition for an Auto attendant
People calling in can use Dial by Name to reach users by specifying either the full or partial name of the person they are trying to reach and there is no option for recording their names.

A simple solution is to have a typed in "pronounce name" field for the dial by name list. Then the AI can use that data element to pronounce the name correctly. I hope Microsoft will consider adding that feature.
