The logical part of my brain had be pronouncing this (and
Maia) as MAY-ah for as long as I can remember.
But then I heard the name MY-ah and really liked it so wanted to know how it could be spelt. I have to admit, being told
Maya and
Maia confused me a little, but now I've trained myself to see
Maya and hear MY-ah in my head.
