[Opinions] Re: Luana
in reply to a message by Lily
I first said "loo-AH-nuh", then looked it up and found that I was wrong. I have no experience or association with the name. I would have pronounced it correctly if spelled Luanna. It does have a country flavor to it, but I don't find it "trashy".

It is correctly pronounced loo-AH-na as far as I know. It's used in Hawaii - at least it made the top 100 there once if I remember correctly - and Kiana is pronounced kee-AH-na so I guess Luana is loo-AH-na. Behindthename gets the pronunciations wrong sometimes. I mean sure, you can pronounce it loo-ANN-a but I would say loo-AH-na is prettier :P
