*I* am primarily kinesthetic and secondarily visual and thus don't bother figuring out how novel-to-me names are pronounced if I'm merely reading them. 'Granby' wouldn't throw me, but reading a biography of Genghis Khan, I didn't spend energy on figuring out how to say most of the names -- I knew the shape of them, which is the point for reading about them.

Frankly, I think people who are primarily aural are 'weird', but I've never called my friends who are so 'freaks'.
