How would you pronounce Natalia / Natalya?
I'm not sure if it should be Na tah lia or Na tal ia.

For me, Natalia is "nuh-TAHL-ee-uh" and Natalya is "nuh-TAHL-yuh". "TAHL" rhymes with "fall".

nah-TAHL-ee-ah or nah-TAHL-yahThose are the way I've heard this name pronounced. I also catch myself pronouncing it nah-TAHL-lee-ah and nah-TAHL-lyah.TAHL being the same sound as the word tall. I almost never hear it pronounced like Natalie with an a on the end.

Na-TAH-lee-ah for Natalia. I've never seen Natalya used but I'd guess na-TAHL-ya, so there's a difference. However when you say Natalia quickly they sound the same.
