How do you pronounce Isra?
Um... yes, this is tonight's question: how do you pronounce Isra? ;-)
I really like the look and the meaning of this name, but I'm not too sure I'm saying it right :/

Me too. But I'd love to be sure I use the correct pronunciation. Oh well... I'll play with it anyway ;-)
if its anything like Isla, then I'd say 'eye-ruh'
The Romany people pronounce it almost as if they are saying the first two letters.
EYE-ESS-rah (or possible more EH-ESS-rah, but you get the point).
I don't know about the rest of the world.
I was introduced to it via the Romany people.

Is-rah, but it might be Ehs-rah.
I say IS-ra, but it's probably more like EES-ra.
I have never heard it or even seen it before. So this is a complete guess, "EES-ruh."
That's how I pronounce it, too.
But all of a sudden... doubts. :/

I think you're right, from what I've seen/ heard of Arabic names.
Oh, that would be awesome because I think I like this pronunciation best. Thanks!
