Pronunciation of "Tufte"?

How do you pronounce your last name?

-- Heather Strong, January 2, 2002


TUFF-tee

-- Edward Tufte, January 2, 2002


Now gather round
There's no PowerPoint around
and my sound's laid down by my own Bose-hounds.
I think up all the best books ya got on ya shelf
so just let me introduce myself
My name is Tufte, pronounced like a mufti.
Ask again and I'll answer gruffly.

(apologies to Digital Underground... and Edward Tufte)
