Help[Opinions] some names i heard today, and pronounciation of Lucia
how do you pronounce Lucia? On the tv show LOST Ana Lucia pronounces it Loo-see-ah. But i always thought of it as Loo-chee-ah.
Today i heard of a little girl named Isis and another called Lahns. Then there was a Mikaela, Madison (boy)and a Bradman.

Lucia? I always thought it was said Loo-see-a, or maybe Loo-sha. Not Loo-chee-a, except if you're Italian.
Isis is wonderful. Lahns is... not. Like Lance with an accent? It could be a nickname for a girl, but as a regular name it's ugh. Mikaela and Madison are mentioned too much as names to avoid (first I ever saw of each was someone ranting about them both). And other times I heard Madison were on a girl, too many times. Bradman looks like a nickname boys trying to be cool would give a Brad. ("Bradman, dude, wuzzup?" "[insert cool talk], bro." etc.)

Like Adelle mentioned, there's 3 pronunciations Loo-sha, Loo-see-a, Loo-chee-a. I prefer Loo-see-a though. I like Isis but prefer Iris to be honest, Lahns is not really my style, I don't like the spelling of Mikaela and it should only be used as a girl's name imo, Madison's nms and I see it more as a girl's name. I know Madison's unisex but I prefer it on a girl if anything.

My mother says Loo-CHEE-ah, I say LOO-sha or LOO-see-a depending on the sound I want. I know the last one isn't listed as one of its pronunciations but I like it and the name has enough that I don't think one more is a crime. :-)
