I recently did a poll on the pronunciation of the name Aria. The choices were AWR-ee-a, ER-ee-a or Other. For those of you who chose the option of Other, how do you pronounce Aria?

If anybody else has anything to contribute, go ahead : )

I know someone with this name. The correct pronounciation is AH-ree-uh/AW-ree-uh.

I would say AIR-ee-a. Which is probably 100% not correct.

Hey Caelex, I thought of another nickname for Jocelyn and thought you might be interested. I already had Joss (JAHS), Jossie (JAHS-ee), Josie (JOS-ee) and now, Joy. Just thought it might be something different to use. : )

Ah-ree-uh, like the musical term. I think its pretty but unless people are musical they might just think its made up or trendy. Allegra is my favorite musical name followed closely by Lyric. :)

Allegra

I love the name Allegra. Unfortunately I can't use it because now everyone associates it with allergy medication. Stupid pharmaceutical company.

I'm too lazy to think of a clever signature.

AH-ree-ah, like the word. Pronuncing it any other way makes no sense to me.

Since my dialect differentiates between aw and ah, I say ahr-ee-uh. The first syllable is pronounced like the name for the letter "R."

I think Aria is a very pretty name but it's a little too frilly for me to ever actually use.
