[Opinions] Re: Kaia, Maia and Gaia
in reply to a message by Lily8
I don't like Kaia. It sounds like a trendy sort of name. Gaia is alright. I don't know why people would say GAY-uh, since Maia is a fairly well-known name, and Gaia is a name from Greek mythology. I think I prefer Maia though (that spelling). I have a friend with that name. It's pronounced MY-ah. I've never heard MAY-ah before. I don't think either would ever be as popular as Maia, but Kaia seems like it could be used more.

The problem is that GAY-ah (okay it's more like GEEEEEEEEEH-ya) is the original pronunciation and I'm all for using original pronunciations but I think people might tease her. So I decided to pronounce it to rhyme with Maya.
