I prefer Natalia, but I also like Natalie. I like pronounciation "nah-tah-lee".
Natalia has nice nicknames: Natty, Talia or Lia.

I prefer Natalia, but I also like Natalie. Estella Natalia is ok, but I think it is a little L heavy.

I can't decide. I love both, but today I'll have to go with Natalia. I prefer Natalie and Natalia in both cases. I say it Nah-TAH-lee-a.No, I don't think either is too common.As a combo, it sounds off. I'd go with either Estelle Natalia (love this) or Estella Natalie (still doesn't sound great.)

I prefer Natalie and while it is somewhat popular here in Australia, it's not over-used on children these days. I pronounce Natalia as nah-TAH-lee-ah.

I vastly prefer Natalia, which I say nah-TAH-lee-ah. Natalie is cute but I don't think it will age well and it's a little bland.Estella Natalia is very nice.

I love Natalia (prn. either way). It's very elegant and sweet. I plan on using it as a MN someday to honor my best friend, Natalie. Estella Natalia is beautiful. Normally I dislike using names with the same endings, but I think this combo is an exception. Very pretty.

Natalia's so much better. Even better: Natalya. They Y gives it a wild swinging untamable look. Estella Natalia is too fancy for me but it's fine. I pronounce it exactly like you do.

I prefer Natalia, I pronounce it 'nah-TAL-ee-ah'.I'm not sure, but I would have thought Natalie would be more common than Natalie. I find Natalie very dull, Natalia is more interesting.I dislike Estella and variations.

I like Natalia (nah-TAHL-ya) the best. It's not too common here (Ontario) I've only ever known one (she's about 23 years old now). I know a LOT of people named Natalie though (only one younger one, age 5, all others over 20).

I like natalia, it sounds a little more feminine. Estella is beautiful also.

I prefer Natalia because it's my name :P. I don't like Estella.
