My daughter had a friend in high school whose name was Alethea. I always liked it. It's the style of name that I usually like. However, it was not pronounced the way that you prefer. It was pronounced uh-LEE-thee-a. I much prefer uh-LEE-thee-a. Maybe that's just a language thing. I don't think that sounds like Alicia with a lisp. If it were uh-LEE-tha, it would, but the long E sound in the third syllable of uh-LEE-thee-a keeps it from sounding like that.

I despise Rhoda and Rhona. Along with Rhonda.
