Re: Alicia
in reply to a message by Lily
I've known one Alicia, who pronounced it a-LISH-a. I think the same was true of a dancer called Alicia Markova - I've heard her name said that way too. I'm South African, and the people I've heard spoke something very close to British English.
I don't know who Alicia Silverstone is or how she pronounces anything - sorry!
I'd choose Alice any time, then Alison and finally Alicia; I can't take Alyssa seriously, though I once met a very nice one.
