HelpAida
I've been watching Verdi's Aida on TV and thinking about this name. I've always heard it pronounced Ah-EE-duh, but once I met an African girl who pronounced it with the stress on the last syllable.
I sort of like it, in spite of not really caring for Ada.

I love Aida
It's so short and simple, and yet both historical, classic and somehow remarkably spunky. I pronounce it as ay-EE-duh, which I'm not sure is the same as ah-EE-duh. But regardless, who cares? It's been on my list for a very long time and I've grown to appreciate it as a very song-like, lyrical name. The syllable combination sounds genuinely beautiful, no?

I like Aida, but it's used by Muslims exclusively here so I'd never use it.
