I pronounce it something similar to "Myol-nir" or "Myol-near"

My-olnir.

Is the j pronounced as y in Scandinavian tongues as it is in German?

I think most of the pronunciations are the same between Scandinavian languages and German.

I'm a Myol-nir person, with the o like "old" and the i like "hit"
