I think even with a normal name like mine (Georgina) has to be spelt everytime anyway. Sometimes people can't pronounce it either. So I don't think being an unusual name makes any difference.
I was having this conversation with hubby the other day while Aaliyah was watching this cartoon, and how I liked the name, but how it might feel a bit silly naming a baby after a cartoon. I love it, but hubby thinks its ridiculous, so its off our list of names for the next bub.
I think its a lovely name, and the pronounciation and spelling, well people will learn it as they do anything, and you might be suprised how many people DO get that French way of saying it and spelling it. The first time I saw the cartoon I pronounced it right, before I even heard them say the name.
