Where I am from, Azalea is pronounced as A-ZAY-LEE-UH. This is my favourite pronunciation because in my opinion, it just sounds better than the others.

With the Spanish pronunciation, it doesn't even sound that much like Iggy or Banks.

I don't know if Azalea is used as a given name in Spanish- or Italian-speaking countries; nevertheless the flower Azalea is pronounced "ah-sah-LAY-ah" in Spanish and "ah-tsah-LAY-ah" in Italian.
From the internet: The Azalea flower symbolizes temperance, fragility, passion and, in China, womanhood; it also means "take care of yourself for me". It is a member of the rhododendron (Greek: "rose tree") family.
