I'd say LIE-lis. I find it extremely ugly.

I suppose it could be LAY-liss or LIE-liss, although I prefer LAY-liss. It sounds quite pretty and makes a refreshing change to Layla, Lyla etc....

I'd say LAY-liss.It's alright; on first glance it looks like someone wanted to use the names Layla/Laila and Lilias, so they decided to combine them.

For some reason, I want to say lay-LEECE, even though that doesn't really make much sense. :-/ LYE-lis would be how I would assume it might be pronounced, lol, but I have no clue. So I'll suspend further judgment until I know how the heck one says it. :)

I think the name is supposed to be LYE-lis, but at the moment, I like LAY-lis better.Array

I agree, LAY-lis is a bit nicer than LYE-lis. Hopefully it's one of those names that has alternate pronunciations. :)

Hmm... my guess would me LAY-lis or LYE-lis. I like the latter pronunciation. The former is all right as well. How would you say it?

To be honest, I've never actually heard the name, only seen it written. So my answer is that I think it's properly pronounced LYE-lis, but my current preference is to LAY-lis. :DArray
