You are right, the issue of stress is not as dramatic as a letter change, it is more the issue of it's sounding as though people are saying it as two names, just putting the emphasis there on LEE. I know almost all names get mispronounced, but for some reason this sounds like butchering to my ear in a way that makes me cringe/turns it from pretty to tacky even though it is not even a different letter, just an issue of stress!

Maybe I do need more time to warm up to it, and jsut deal with the fact that this will occasionally happen. Everyone seems too like it when we mention it-but I hate to pass by an opportunity to "get it right." Violet is certainly the other option, it may not gain as mcuh popularity as I think.
