I can revise the script to remove some (or all) punctuation from the
voiced names, replacing it with spaces in the voiced text strings.
AFAICT (based on my quick test), underscores are the only things that
the MS speech synthesizer will actually say out loud. Periods, commas,
question marks, semicolons and dashes just produce a pause (if anything
at all) in the speech.
Note that this won't have any effect on your file or voice clip names,
only on the spoken representation of those names.
