Re: Thalia
in reply to a message by humblebee
I agree on the pronunciation. It's not a big deal to correct someone once or twice, but it gets tedious after a while. Of course, plenty of English speakers know languages where "th" makes a "t" sound (myself included), but I obviously can't speak for everyone.
I've always pronounced Thalia and Talia as 3-syllable names: T(H)AL-ee-ah. Although I kind of like THAY-lee-ah and tha-LYE-ah as well.
