[Facts] Re: Czech pronounciation
Well, I'm not Czech, but I may be able to help with -ie male names. In Croatian Latin male names ending in -us have the enging -ije (pr.'ee-ye'), like Julius = Julije, Silvius = Silvije, Livius = Livije, Polonius = Polonije, etc. I think it's the same in Czech just with the ending -ie.
So I guess Livie would be pronounced 'lee-vee-e'. Not sure how they stress the name though.Hope that helped:-)___________________________________________________________

Thank you!I'll be so glad, if you could also explain, is it LEE-vee-e, lee-VEE-e or lee-vee-E? Sorry, my questions should be rather irritating. :P

Well, in Croatian it's lee-VEE-ye, but that may not be the case in Czech.
