Re: pronounce Aileas?
in reply to a message by sarah
I've wondered about that myself. I automatically want to say it like the word "alias". But according to namenerds.com (not sure how accurate it is, though) the pronunciation of Aileas is AH-lus or EH-lus. I don't know if I like it, then. :b

AH-luss is right - in practice, it sounds just like Alice :-)_____________________________________________________________________"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true."Elinor

Namenerds is usually accurate, I think...(m)On the whole, though, I think this question would be better posed on the General board. There'll be more people prepared to answer it there.Array
