[Opinions] How do you pronounce these?
I'm looking for how you personally pronounce them, so there's no right or wrong answer. I just want to get an idea of which are most popular. They are all from my PNL. It would be helpful to know where you are from too. Any comments on them would be good also.Esme

Esmé = ez-MAY, well the "may" part doesn't really make an ay sound, if you know what I mean. It's the sound of a long French é. Hard to explain. I would definitely spell it Esmée for a girl.

I'm Scottish. I've used eye to represent the same sound as the vocabulary word. Esme - EZ-may
Amelia - a-MEEL-ya
Helena - HEH-leh-na straight off but I'm comfortable with heh-LAY-na too
Cassia - I prefer CA-see-ah I know CA-shuh is most common though
Clementine - cle-men-TYNE same as the fruit. As a Scot the y in tyne doesn't rhyme with eye, more like Iy, but that's just my accent.
Lucia - LOO-sha
Kyra - KEYE-ra straight off but can see it as KEE-ra
Dahlia - DAL-ya
Ines - wouldn't be sure, same as the surname Innes straight off, but I see it's ee-NES.
