I would always misread it as Angela or Angelina.

I like Angelia but it almost reminds me more of Angelina Jolie than Angelina does.Overall I like Angelia about as much as Angelina. I slightly prefer Angelina to Angelia but I prefer Lia as a nn to Lina as a nn though both are nice nn's.Angela is just not my style but it is a nice name.Angeline is a name I probably prefer to Angelina or Angelia.I used to like Angelique as a kid as a guilty pleasure name only suitable for a really frilly white cat stuffed animal I had.Angel seems unisex to me even though I have only known male Angel's.I dislike Angel names but I also kind of like Angel names. Other than Angela they all seem a bit cutesy. But I like how Angel names make me feel because I feel a connection to my hispanic culture.

I love it! Knew one in middle school and loved it ever since. And not used too often, either.

I prefer Angela. I once knew a woman who would become angry if her name (Angelia) wasn't pronounce like Angela. Okay ... I guess the i was silent.

I feel bad for her. I doubt many would instinctively call her Angela.

It's nice enough but it sounds a bit clunky.

It's nice but not striking. Reminds me of Angelina Jolie.

That's how I feel about it.

It's pretty, but sort of ambiguous in pronunciation. I'd prefer Angela.

Aaaan-ja-lee-a,
Where are you running to now?This is the only reason I know to pronounce Angelia as Angel-Leah; it's a song by Richard Marx.
I think the name is pretty enough, but much prefer Angelina.

It sounds pretty. Angeli is a surname to me... and this reminds me of it. That said, I love Angela and Angelina, so I like Angelia. I have never seen it before either. I would be excited to meet one.

Like the flying Ford Anglia in Harry Potter? Definitely a car, and definitely winged! As a name for a mere human, I think it's likely to cause confusion on a daily basis, and it would have been easier and kinder to just stick to Angela.
