Help[Opinions] Well yeah
in reply to a message by Flare En Kuldes
I would definitely introduce him to others just saying the Ll as an L. But at home I might pronounce it correctly for fun.
I'm just not sure what my favorite nn is. I went to high school with a Llewellyn who went by Lynn (spelled it that way for some reason). I think Llelo is really cute for a little boy though. People will call your kid whatever you introduce them as, so I'm not concerned with it not being that intuitive.
How is Fiametta said if it's not fee-a-MET-a? Fia is super cute though. :)

I'm kind of obsessed with intuitive nicknames. It bothers me when I can't figure out how the NN comes from the full name. Silly, I know.
It's more like fyah-MEH-tah (3 instead of 4 syllables):

I love how on the name entries on that site there is a "Buy this name" link. "HAHA, I'm buying Fiammetta so nobody else can use it!!!11" How much money do you need to buy a name? I'm surprised I haven't heard of celebrities doing it. They sure can afford it, and they'd get all kinds of lawsuits out of it... :-D
