    I’ve always pronounced daemon as “day-mun”, as opposed to “dee-mun” (for demon). Then i played Cyberpunk 2077 and they’re calling daemons “dee-muns” and I’m beginning to doubt myself

      Well in German you call a demon a Dämon. However the ä is also spelled as ae if the keyboard doesn’t have the letter. So basically daemon is German dämon. And I pronounce it like that.
