Re: Junia
in reply to a message by Malk
I basically pronounce it like Julia but with an N instead of an L: JOO-nee-ə. Given how J transforms in other languages, hearing it pronounced like an H, Y, or Zh wouldn't surprise me, but they aren't what I intuitively use myself. I like it a lot, but I do associate Junia primarily with Junia/Junius from Romans 16--she and the Hanson kid are actually my only Junia associations--so it has a different vibe for me than Aidan, Finn, and Calla. Both combos are pretty, but I prefer Junia Iris Maeve.
