October 19, 20195 yr Author Hi there, I think there are different ways possible to pronounce it. But I as German would not give accent to two "oo" I would give one "u" Think this would be the way as german people pronounce it. Her name is from the red small animal which lives in the woods, called Fox. And this is the german name for that animal "FUCHS". More accent in german to the letter "U" in english the letter "ju". Hope this helps? Would spell it like "Fux" in German. Look in this story click to the guy at Bodymanufactur , he spells her name: https://www.instagram.com/stories/vanessafuchs/?hl=de

The person thought that "Fuchs" was pronounced as in "F*cks" which isn't correct, though. The link that was posted by @victoriassecret_aut explains it quite well. The German "u" is like "oo" in English. Whereas the English "u" sounds more like an "a" ("hungry", "duck") or as in uniform or urgent or whatever (thus a letter/sound that doesn't have an exact equivalent in German). So yeah, her name is spelled "Fuchs", but pronounced "Foox" or "Fooks". Like in this video explained
