Help[Opinions] Re: Hilaria
in reply to a message by Cerridwen Vandroogenbroeck
I would pronounce it, "hih-LEHR-ee-uh" or "hih-LAIR-ee-uh." (That's the same pronunciation written two different ways.)
My sister's name is Hilary so I may be biased. But Hilaria is fresh and appealing to me.
I knew a woman with this name who spelled it HaLarear. She pronounced it the same way you do. The spelling is all the more surprising because I'm in the U.S. where we take our "r's" seriously. And yet, HaLarear was said just like Hilaria. She said she had no idea why it was like that; it was a family name.
