As the reader, I'd search the index as 50 Cent (because that's how I visualize him—as a brand, so to speak), even though, while reading, I'd likely "pronounce" him as Fiddy.moihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824043795171732429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090979633822979041.post-62659576119600035302011-01-06T11:00:21.050-05:002011-01-06T11:00:21.050-05:00Moi:
