Pronunciation of Thalia
I really like the name Thalia, but I've found so many different pronunciations for it (THA-ley-ah, tah-LEE-uh, tha-LYE-ah, THAYL-yah), with tha-LYE-ah being my personal favorite. Is this the traditional Greek pronunciation? I've read on more than one comment that that's the classic pronunciation, but I've read just as many saying that another one is. Hannah Brielle:
