[Opinions] Uxía
Just discovered this girls name. Uxía. According to this site it is pronounced oo-SHEE-a.
What do you think about this name?

Love it. I love the odd look of it most. But the pronunciation is almost as much fun. It almost looks Chinese. Finding out that it is Basque comes as a surprise and again adds another layer of fun. Given that it is a variant of Eugenia, I can see the stress falling on the "ee" sound in the middle. The site's pronunciation makes sense to me.

The pronounciation sounds wrong. Are you sure it isn't OO-Xee-a? Overall though, I don't really like it.

I'm not sure about the pronunciation. I'm only going by what this site says. http://www.behindthename.com/name/uxi10a

When I first saw it, I thought of a Pokemon... not sure why. The pronounciation still hasn't convinced me though...
