[Opinions] Iliamna
Place names are super popular, and I recently met a baby with the middle name Iliamna. She was named after a mountain in Alaska. WDYT?

I kind of like it on paper, which surprises me because usually that type of thing wouldn’t be my style. But I think it’s a perfect storm for pronunciation and spelling issues.
I like the origin of the name, but wouldn't personally use it myself. I find it a bit tricky to pronounce in my native language, and I won't try to in English.
I have no idea how to pronounce it.
That's certainly a different name. Is it pronounced ill-ee-am-na? or ill-ih-am-na?
Can't say I'm a fan of it myself, but I'm not angry at it. It has no sounds that are desirable to me, but I can see why others might take a liking to it.
