ArchivesRe: Alaïs
in reply to a message by Jenna
Hello
I assume that Alaïs is a medieval french form of Alice, or rather directly a variant of Adalheidis.
As for the pronunciation (i'm french), it's : Ah-lah-ees (like Anaïs with a "l"). The "lah-ees" doesn't make a diphtong (it's not pronounced like "eye" in english).

Thanks for the info. I know the trema mean that the vowels are pronounced separately but I completely wasn't sure...
