It actually took me a minute to realise, when I was reading the article, that it was supposed to be
Elijah! I thought it was pronounced like AH-LEE-jah. I have no idea who Tichina
Arnold is, so I thought maybe she was an
Ali fan or relative or something! Anyway, getting away from my embarassing moment there, I think Alijah is horrible with that spelling and I don't like the name for a girl.
Elijah is such a strong masculine name to me.
