I like it and I spell it Taya. Husband doesn't like it though, so it's no go this time. :O(

Teija....

Teija is a finnifh name and is pronounced Tay-ah jhust like Seija is pronounced Say-ya...ect....check them out!

I know a girl named Taya.

I like it, but I think the actress spells her Tea with the little accent mark over the e.

I automatically associate Taya (this spelling) with Star Trek, as it was used on both Deep Space Nine and Voyager as a legitimate name by two different species.

---

Outside of ST, however, Taya sounds trendy and made up, and I dislike it, sorry.

But I'd definitely spell it either Taya or Téa (link: Tea). Probably Téa in RL, as in that spelling it's a form of Thea, and therefore has more legitimacy and substance for me. Teha and Teah are non-intuitive spellings; I wouldn't have known how to pronounce them if you hadn't told me.

I like the pronunciation TAY-ah, but I think Teha looks like Tee-ha
or Tay-hah.

Taia
Taya

I think the 'a' makes it more likely that it will be pron. like she wants it to be.
