Do you know any Spanish at all? As Profe Esteban said, "Le" in Spanish sounds "Leh", not "Lee". Since Leonor is a Spanish name, it should be pronounced according to Spanish phonetics, and that's leh-oh-NOHR, not LEE-OH-NOR (which, by the way, doesn't make clear what syllable you're stressing). Using English phonetics to pronounce non-English names makes no sense and is very incorrect.

Just leave me alone. I will write what I think are facts.
Hahahah!
Facts are not about what you think. What you think are called opinions.

I figured that a long time ago. It seems that everybody (except for me) uses theories for their answers, not facts at all.

When you answer about some pronunciation, please right with capital letters the syllab where the stress is. We don´t know if you mean LEE-oh-nor... lee-OH-nor... or lee-oh-NOR.
BTW, in Spanish the right pronunciation is "leh-oh-NOR", in this language, LE sounds "leh", not "lee". Thanks.

Oh, ok. Well, it seems that most people on this website show the whole pronounciation of a name in CAPITALS.
Amongst English-speakers, yes.

Thank you. I am glad my point is clear now.
