3. A method of facilitating text-to-speech conversion of a username, the method comprising: retrieving, at a computing device, a name of a user associated with said username, said name comprising one of a first name of said user and a last name of said user; and determining, at the computing device, a pronunciation of said username based at least in part on whether said name forms at least part of said username, wherein, if said name forms at least part of said username, said determining said pronunciation comprises generating a phonetic representation of said name pronounced as a whole or generating a tokenized representation of said name as a whole suitable for interpretation by a text-to-speech engine, and wherein said determining said pronunciation further comprises calculating a likelihood of pronounceability of a portion of said username that is not said name.
