Help[Facts] Well....
in reply to a message by Magia
My housemate (very definitely an English girl) has Haidee as har middle name (named after a great aunt, I think).
She pronounces it hay-dee, and I think that's the most likely pronounciation for English speakers.
Heidi <Adelheid has no connection to Haidee. Haidee appears in a poem by Byron (I think it's Byron :) ) and thus had some vogue in Britain during and after Byron's (?) lifetime.
