[Opinions] Re: Pronouncing Alicia
in reply to a message by Savannah
It used to be a-LISS-ee-ah (like Alice with an ee-ah on the end) almost exclusively in Britain and that's the one I prefer and would automatically use.
However, (and I suppose this is down to American influence) I've think a-LEE-sha is more common on younger girls. That said, the a-LISS-ee-ah pronunciation must still be used a lot as you see a few with the spelling Aleesha, obviously making sure they get a-LEE-sha rather than a-LISS-ee-ah.
