Ralph Vaughan Williams pronounced his name "Raif" to distinguish himself from the common English pronunciation of "Ralph" as "Ralf." The pronunciation "Raif" is derived from the traditional Anglo-Saxon form of the name, which he preferred for its historical and cultural roots. Additionally, it reflected his individuality and connection to a lineage of British composers, setting him apart in the musical landscape of his time.
