I like the lu-chee-ah pronunciation in theory, but not in practice, unless you live in Italy.

I like all three pronunciations, but right now i'll say loo-sha is my favorite. :)

put shorter subjects and then the rest of the text in your message, FYI. It's a friendlier format for keeping the board readable.

I like Lucy-ah the best. I hate loo-CHEE-ah, it reminds me of a Chia pet...

Lucy-ah.

I think loo-CHEE-ah is the prettiest. I love it.

LOO-sya. The pronounciation you mentioned is the Italian one, isn't it? I find it a bit harsh due to the -ch sound.

I like loo-CHEE-ah, but I slightly prefer LOO-see-ah. Like Lucy with an A.

It's nice, but I pronounce it "loo-SEE-ah".

loo-SEE-ah or loo-THEE-ah. I think the Italian pronunciation is terribly ugly.

I pronounce it LOO-sha. Loo-CHEE-a is fine, just not my preferred pronunciation.

I pron. it loo-CHEE-uh and I love this pronuciation :)

loo-CHEE-ah is the standard Italian pronounciation of Lucia, so I'm used to it, though possibly I prefer pronounced it loo-SEE-ah the Spanish way.

I prefer the pronunciation of loo-SEE-ah and that is the one I would use if I used the name. I also like loo-CHEE-ah and loo-THEE-ah. I dislike LOO-sha.

I would say loo-SEE-ah, but were it Luciana, I love loo-chee-AH-na

Lucia..

---

Loo CHEE ah

---

that is exactly how I'd pronounce it. the Italian way. its my Italian friends mums middle name, and the name of one of her cousins.

---

the other pronunciations seem weird to me, even though they are all legit.

I think I like LOO-sha the best. It is a nice name that way or Loo-SEE-ah as well.

I would pronounce it loo-CHEE-ah.

I actually alternate between loo-CHEE-ah and loo-SEE-ah. I like them both equally well.

I'd say loo-SEE-ah (the Spanish pronunciation). I like it better than loo-CHEE-ah, but I tend to like Spanish names better than Italian names, probably because I've had more exposure to Spanish.

I like it pronounced Loo-SEE-ah. Loo-CHEE-ah is okay but Im not really a fan.
