babynamesDo you guys have names on your list that YOU say a certain way, but OTHERS say a completely different way? But you love the name too much to take it off, even though you know it's going to be a hassle to keep reminding everyone how to say it?
We're trying to decide if we would ever use Juliana, pronounced our preferred way of yoo-lee-AH-nah. But we're worried that too many people would pronounce it joo-lee-AH-nah, which is a pronunciation I flat-out hate. We've considered Uliana, but I'm not too fond of the spelling -- it's just "okay".
So, anyone else have names like this? I know Sara/Sarah is a very common one. And thoughts on the name Juliana in general? Thoughts on Uliana?
