I've always pronounced it "Bob".

I'm surprised that so many people see "Si" and pronounce it like "sigh" instead of "see." I guess none of you took high-school Spanish.

I was never under the impression that Si Cwan was of Spanish descent.

Besides, it's spelled "Si Cwan" but it's pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove."

The amazing thing is that it took this long for someone to make that joke.....

It's Christmas, everyone's too busy eating!

Haven't read this particular novel, so I know nothing about the character, but knowing Peter's passion for puns (alliteration intended), I look at it and see "sick one."

YMMV.

Sorry, internet access has been a bit intermittent for me this week....

I feel ashamed for not thinking of it sooner...

At least you're not making excuses like Leisner!

I've read it as "Sigh Kwan" myself; but the "sick one" made me laugh!
