[Opinions] Re: Sephalie (eta)
SHEF-a-lee is ok, SEF-a-lee sounds too much like syphilis. Sephalie lends itself to the SEF-a-lee pronunciation so I don't like it. I'd opt for Shefali(eta)
the user submitted info for Shefali indicates that the pronunciation is "sheh-FAH-lee." Take that for what it's worth because I have no idea what is correct

I don't get the "Syphillis" sound at all from it. Instead I think of Sephora, but thanks for the opinion. And this user who wrote that it was pronounced sheh-FAH-lee also wrote, "Some form of Middle Eastern, specific culture unknown." *facepalm at "Middle Eastern"* My boyfriend speaks Bangali. I'll take his word instead.
