All of the idiots in this thread thinking they know how it’s pronounced.
It’s pronounced charon. SMH.
This guy is pronounced Karen
The moon like Sharon
Wouldn’t make sense for the moon to be different than the god since it’s named after him (hence why they chose that name for a moon of Pluto, lord of the underworld).
Named for a dude’s wife, Charlene, and shorthorns into an appropriate mythological figure
Karen.
The guide across the river Styx?
Yes.
Moon?
No.
They’re the same dude
I always found it funny to read it as Sharon, and now you’re telling me it’s named after someone called Charlene? This keeps getting better
