Well, my name is Hunter, and when people call my name, I hear two types of pronunciations.
1. HunTer. The "t" in the name is, well, present. Like in the word "banter."
2. Hunner. The "t" in this name is not there or extremely unstressed. Sounds similar to "gunner" or "runner."
I, myself, switch it up, and say Hunter one day and Hunner the next. All depends on how I feel.
How do you say it?

Today I was watching History Channel and the presenter was named Hunter.I thought its weird to have "Hunter" as a name but its perfectly normal over there I see,it sounds cool too I guess..I never met a guy named "Hunter in Turkish".Its a common surname here though.

A Hunner sounds like a term related to Rangers supporters.
