I've noticed that espeak mispronounces the word "heim". This happens to be 
my name but it’s a part of a few words too. A lot of names end in "heim" 
like Mannheim Steamroller and Framheim, the name of Roald Amundsen's ship. 
Heim is pronounced to rhyme with time but espeak pronounces it to rhyme with 
name.  Anybody know how I can submit a change request to the espeak 
developers? I suppose I can fix it every time I install espeak but it really 
should be fixed in espeak itself.
