I think its pronounced Hel- Oh - Eez
I like Hel-Oh_eez because it sounds like its pronounced that way because of the spelling! I dont like either name.

I would pronounce it like Eloise. I really like Eloise but Heloise is NMS.

If you want the proper pronunciation, you may want to ask the Facts Board, but I'd personally pronounce it as hel-oh-eez until corrected.I prefer Eloise, because I don't like the sound of Heloise (assuming I'm saying it properly). But both names look pretty and classy to me.

I have heard it pronounced both ways, but I personally prn. Heloise with an H- sound at the beginning. Because it has an H in it! (sorry, paraphrasing a joke there ;b) BTW, I prefer Eloise.

I think Heloise looks a little bit silly... I would assume it was pronounced Eloise, but at the same time I'd always want to add on a breathy "H" at the beginning. Does that make sense?Heloise - Nmsaa.
Eloise - Pretty.I much prefer Eloise.

I think the H is pronounced.I very much prefer Eloise, because I find the h sound at the beginning extremely unappealing.I have a great dislike of Heloise and Eloise is very cute imo.

If I saw Heloise, I would pronounce it with the H sound, but I don't know if that's right. If they're both pronounced the same, then I don't particularly prefer one over the other, although Heloise might get mispronounced sometimes. I like Eloise a lot, by the way. :)
