    I'm torn between Elle-ee-ah or Ee-lie-ah. If it's neither of those then it wasn't my guess.

    Thanks ladies it was a name I was considering for a girl and I said it as Eh - lee - ah and would shorten it to Ellie but then the more I looked at at the more I noticed it could be pronounced different ways and you ladies confirmed it, I would hate for her to go through life with people always pronouncing her name wrong

    DS actually has a little girl in his class and spelt that way and they pronounce it as Elle-ee-a. There has never been a mispronunciation.
