I would pronounce it THEE-a unless it had an accent. it would be pronounced TAY-A if it was spelt Théa .

TAY-ah

I say Theodora like Teodora, so it follows that Thea would be TAY-ah.

THEE-ah. Only ever heard it pronounced that way.

I say thee-uh.

TAY-ah

That's the Dutch way :)

I've heard it both ways (THEE-ah, soft "th" as in "think" and TAY-ah), but just looking at it I'd assume the first pronunciation unless told otherwise. I like Thea with that prn. as a nn for Theodora or Dorothea but I think it seems a little bare on its own.

I first thought it was "THEE-ah", but then I heard others pronouncing it as "TAY-ah". I don't mind either, but I prefer "THEE-ah" just because it's the first one I knew and "TAY-ah" just sounds like Taylor to me without the 'l' (I don't like Taylor).

THEE - ah

I always pn it exactly like Theo (THEE-o) but with the a sound instead of the o

THEE-a, as I am friends with a girl who pronounces it that way. It's also likely to be initially pronounced that way by most people.

I like it both ways.
