Pronunciation of the name Melissa
Hello everybody. I have a little doubt.
The name Melissa is usually pronounced Me-LEES-sah, I suppose. But I used to watch an American cartoon in which there was a character named Melissa, and everybody pronounced her name Me-LIE-ssah.
Why does this fact happen? How do Americans pronounce the name Melissa? Thank you very much.
P.S. Melissa is actually one of my favourite names.You must never be fearful about what you are doing when it is right. ~Marie Curie
