[Opinions] Re: Leanne and Lyanna
in reply to a message by Perrine
I just finished rereading a series from my childhood, called The Chronicles of Prydain. In it is a giant cat called Lyanna. It feels very feline!
I would naturally pronounce it lee-ANN-a but wouldn't bat an eyelid if someone said it was ly-ANN-a. I think it is rising quickly because of the fashionable sounds and the Game of Thrones character.
I do find Leanne a bit dull, it feels very 1980s/1990s.

Would you recommend the Chronicles of Prydain to an adult who never read it as a kid, or is it mainly good for the nostalgia factor?
