Re: Lyra
in reply to a message by Array
Interesting you should say that. While I am aware of the Pullman books, and actually plan to read them before the movies start coming out (this Christmas!), I was not aware that they feature a character named Lyra, and would not have guessed that the name is prn LYE-ra in the books. Wouldn't have known any of that if you hadn't posted this! At least, not until I'd got around to starting my reading.

I'm not sure if it was ever clearly stated that it was pronunced Lyra.
At least in none of the books; Pullmaan might have said something at one point. I do recommend the books, they are fabulous. (Fab enoguh for my niece to be named them!)
