 Kasia. Kasiah. Casia.  Ect ect ect.  Which is the preferred spelling and how do YOU pronounce it?  

There seems to be a lot of this lately.

Also-  the lady I work with has finally decided on a name for her daughter due in August-  
Callie Rose will have a baby sister name Alexis Burke.  

Burke is the mothers maiden name so I'm not 100% against it, although the Lexi/Callie sib-set will get the Greys Anatomy reference(which she is aware of!)

Kasia.

In Polish, (this spelling) it's pronounced Kasha. Emphasis, as always in Polish, is on the penultimate syllable.

I have a friend named Kasia and she pronounces her name KAH-shah. She's Polish.

Alexis Burke is okay. I prefer Callie Rose though.

I've never heard of any of those names before. When I first read them I said Cay-shuh. I actually really like them. I think Casia's my favorite spelling.

Callie and Alexis are cute together... I don't love them, but they're cute.

Kasia is one of my favorite names (I go back and forth b/t that and Katia). Pronounced Kash-uh.

I think I'm the only one to think to say it like this but I really thought it was "Ka-sy-ah" *shrugs* love it though.

I love Cassia, but I really don't like Kasia. They seem like completely different names to me.
I pronounce Cassia like CASS-ee-ah, and Kasia like KAH-see-ah, with a long 'ah' sound at the beginning.

Burke is so disgusting on a girl. It sounds like an old man with a cigar. YUCK.

If you mean the KAHZ-ee-ah pronunciation, I stand by Kasia.

I work with a Kasia, pronounced Kasha. I never heard of the name before, but I like it (mainly b/c she's a lovely girl :))

I like Callie Rose & Alexis. :) I think it makes a cute sibset, even with the Greys Anatomy reference.

I've always seen Casia and pronounced it cass-ee-ah but that was probably because i didn't know how to pronounce it.
