Subject: Looking for "correct" pronunciation for name Aloysia help please.
Author: Amy   (guest, 69.156.52.26)

I was wondering if anyone knows the traditional "correct" pronunciation for the name Aloysia. It is the feminine form of the name Aloysius so one would think that it is pronounced

ah-uh-WISH-ee-ah

But I have also heard al-oh-WEES-ee-ah, uh-LOY-shuh and al-uh-WIZH-ee-uh.

Anyone know which is correct??

Thanks.
