Reply to: How do you pronounce by Lily
Madeline: MAD-ə-lien (how it was pronounced in the film)
Eunice: YOO-nis
Kaya: KIE-ə (or maybe KAY-ə)
Kaia: KIE-ə (I love Kaia)

yoo-NEES seems rather fairly counter-intuitive to me, like pronouncing Janice ja-NEES, since I've only heard it pronounced YOO-nis. Though it could work since Eunice is an uncommon name, but you might have to correct people on the pronunciation.
