How do you pronounce
Cecily and
Cecilia,
Cecelia? I've always pronounced
Cecily as SIS-ə-lee, and
Cecilia and
Cecelia as sis-EEL-yə. Is it "supposed" to be pronounced like CESS-ə-lee and cess-EEL-yə? Or is there anyone else out there who pronounces these names the way I do? xD I'm just curious. I interrogated my family and neighbours, and apparently, I'm not crazy... They pronounce them the same way!
I tend to pronounce the letter "e" like "i":
Elizabeth (i-LIZ-ah-bith),
Winifred (WIN-i-frid),
Serena (si-REEN-ah), etc.
