HelpRe: Do you pronounce these names the same?
in reply to a message by Rainya
I expect Anna to be AN-na, but prefer it as AHN-na (the way Ana almost always is prn)
Mila = MEE-la, Myla = MIE-la
I've only known one Marisa and her name was pronounced ma-RISS-uh (like Marissa), I think. But I didn't like her, so I prefer ma-REE-suh.
I'd probably say Camila more like ka-MEE-la (like Carmina), instead of like Camilla (ka-MILL-uh), but I'd listen first to how others said it, if I could.
Sarah and Sara are the same.
Layla and Leila are the same.
Lianna I've never actually seen. I've seen Leanna, which is lee-ANN-a, and Liana, which is lee-AHN-na.
Caroline rhymes fine, Carolyn rhymes fin.
Annalise I'd attempt as AN-na-LEES, and Anneliese I'd try AN-nuh-LEE-za, half-expecting to be corrected to Anna-LYAY-za
Kali = Cah-lee, like collie dog; Callie = CAL-ee, with Cal as in calendar
