I was watching TLC the other day and they had a little girl on there named Saira (Sigh-ruh).

WDYT?

I quite like it, although I'd worry that people would constantly mispronouce it.

Eek wanted to add, I would change the spelling. Maybe Syra, like Tyra. I think that might help with pronounciation.

I like it! (Though, I do agree that it should be spelled differently.)

I think it should be spelled differently to get that pronunciation. It just looks like someone spelled Sara wrong.

But I like the sound.

If you didn't clarify that it was pronounced Sigh-ruh, I'd pronounce it the same as Sarah.

When I saw TLC the other day, there was a baby named Alexandrew (Alexandru?). It's horrible!

I'm not that big a fan of Saira, but it's not as bad as a lot of names I've heard!

i would probably mispronounce it as sarah, but i definitely think it's original.
