How would you pronounce this name?

[clare7847]

Maia. I really like the name but not sure how people will pronounce it! Would you say it like the month as in May ah, or like My ah? Thanks in advance!

 

[Pingu]

I would pronounce it as may-a

 

[jen1604]

Personally I would say it My-ah spelt like that I think but I might be completely wrong.Thats just how it looks to me xxx

 

[cupcake]

my-yah

I don't think there is a right or wrong way to pronounce a name, you can decide either way, if i was choosing i would pick My ah because i like the way that sounds.

Good Luck

Would Maya be a better spelling for May-ah?

 

[~Roo~]

Maia is definitely prn. MY-ah. It's just like Kaia which is prn. KYE-ah.

If you are going for the prn. of MAY-ah, I would spell it Maya.

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

I'd pronounce that my-ah

 

[Amygdala]

I'd pronounce it my-ah as well. If you want it pronounced May-ah, I'd spell it Maya. Looks nicer as well I think.
