HelpRe: Pronounciation is key!
in reply to a message by LadyBug18
1 I prefer Elena and Lena pronounced like you say - Eh-lay-na, Lay-na. I normally say Elena like that (because I'm used to it as a Latin American name); I have to ask if Lena is Lee-na or Lay-na, but I tend to say Lee-na :-(
2 I've always said her-MY-uh-nee, didn't know there was any other way.
3 Kezia as Key-zee-ah seems just incorrect to me .. like the way it'd be said by someone who had learned from the Bible at home alone and never heard Keziah said aloud; kind of rustic and quaint. But I could get used to it. It'd come out Key-zhah if I had to say it often, which is rather pretty, if strange.
