Help[Opinions] Re: Maira
in reply to a message by Murasaki
I would be more likely to pronounce it MY-ra. It could be an alternate spelling of Myra. Also reminds me of Maida and Maila.
I think it's pretty.

Woops, I misspelled the pronounciation, it would indeed be MA-ee-ra with the stress on the first A (corrected it now).
Now that I think about it, There's actually a chance that her parents wanted the name to be Myra pronounced the English way, rather than Mee-ra, which is how Italians would pronounce it. A bit like some girls who're named Daiana so that it's pronounced the English way, rather than Dee-ana, which is the regular Italian pronounciation of Diana.
