I think it comes from Colombia. Does anyone know anything about
a) origin
b) meaning
c) pronounciation (the most important aspect)
I would not want to pronounce my blind date's name completely wrong ;-)
Thanks

It is a made up Hispanic name combining two trends: graphical adaptation to Spanish of an English word used as first name(Milady>Mileydi, Lady>Leydi) and the use of the ending -leydis/-leidis (Yurisleidis or Yuleidis, for example).
This kind of creations is typical from some countries of Latin America, basically Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba, Puerto Rico and Mexico.
It is pronounced mee-LAY-dees.
