ArchivesRe: pronunciation of 'Otylia'?
in reply to a message by Erzsébet
Hi Erzsébet,
Otylia is a spelling variant of Ottilia / Ottilie, which are latinized versions of Old German names beginning with Od-, so the meaning is not "lucky heroine", but "wealth".
The pronunciation is o-TEE-lee-yah (stress on the second syllable).
Regards, Satu
