The spelling of the word "Neihoff" may seem unusual, but it follows common English phonetic patterns. It is pronounced /ˈnaɪhɑf/, with emphasis on the first syllable. The "ei" combination is pronounced as a long "i" sound, as in the word "height." The "h" after the "ei" is silent, as is the final "f." While the spelling may take some getting used to, the pronunciation is straightforward and is easily recognizable to native English speakers.
