Hmmm ... I was wondering if anyone would mention that. I've thought of it before. Since I'm pronouncing the name R-ee-el-a rather than AIR..., I'm hoping to avoid the similarity but I do see where you're coming from because I have negative associations with other names. Take the name Lydia, for example. To me, Lydia rhymes so with Chlamydia, that I just can't get past it.
