Yeah, I don't care for Jimmy or Jim either. For James, I rather like Jem (no connection to the word gem in my mind). I think I like Char best for Charlotte, I'm not crazy about Lottie.
I guess the only reason that I really like LEE-uh is because it's the way I've always heard it pronouced, maybe because I'm Christian instead of Jewish? Dunno, it just seems normal to me, and LAY-uh seems different, but I could definitely see why you would like it better if it was the traditional pronounciation for you. I like the spelling Leah, regardless of how you pronounce it.
