How Do You Spell MCCREARY?
Pronunciation: [məkɹˈi͡əɹi] (IPA) 
The spelling of "McCreary" is not intuitive due to its unusual cluster of consonants. The initial "Mc" indicates that the word is of Irish or Scottish origin and is pronounced "məˈkrɛəri". The "c" and "r" sounds are both pronounced separately, with the "c" pronounced as a hard "k" sound. The final "ary" is pronounced as "air-ee". The spelling of McCreary may cause confusion for those unfamiliar with Irish and Scottish names, but once the pronunciation is understood, it becomes easier to remember.
