HelpRe: Lucia
in reply to a message by t
I think Lucia is a lovely name, especially with that pronunciation.
The only problem I have is that if you have a very Italian last name, it would seem odd not to use the Italian pronunciation.

I don't think it would be odd unless I lived in Italy... I think most americans will be oblivious to the italian pronunciation (unless they are hard core italians themselves... and by this I mean off the boat, or maybe one generation removed from off the boat). LOL>
spanish & italian both romance languages.. I don't think lu-see-ah is too much of a stretch. I actually think a lot of people will think my preferred pronunciation is the italian version. People are generally clueless I have found... :)
