[Opinions] Re: Islay
in reply to a message by Akua Topaz
Ditto to the pronunciation that Lethe gave. I don't care for Isla (it's really common in Scotland at the moment, 16th on the popularity charts for 2007, 232 girls named this), but think Islay (pronounced the way you say it, EYE-lay, is beautiful to look at and say... although for a girl, not a boy. 4 girls were named Islay in Scotland last year, but no boys.
I just wish I could find a spelling where it was obvious that it was supposed to be pronounced EYE-lay. Any way I try it other than Islay just looks ugly or incomplete, so if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know!
