HelpRe: Ayda
in reply to a message by elysa
Yes, Ayda could be pronounced AY-da. I can't think of any other way to pronounce Ayda. Aida is pronounced ah-EE-da.
I don't think Ayda would still mean the same as Aida because they aren't pronounced the same. Emily and Emmileigh do still mean the same thing, but AY-da (Ayda) would rather be a variation on Ada and mean the same as Ada.
I much prefer Ada, by the way. Ayda looks weird and trendy.

I like Ada, but do you think people would mispronounce it?

hmmmm I think in Europe (non English speaking countries) people might say AH-da, but in all English speaking countries people would say AY-da. If you live in a non English speaking country: I think it would be easy to correct people. You just tell them and they'll remember. Ada is pretty simple, it's not like you're using Kayghtelynne Rennae or something. Ada looks much nicer than Ayda. I also read that Ayda was a Hebrew name, if so, it is probably pronounced EYE-da in Hebrew.
