Ilithyia

I don't like the fact that the first two syllables of this name (in English) are "I lie."

Ilithyia looks awkward and seems too elaborate/contrived for a human baby, but I admire it all the same. It's a very ancient, historically-rich name; Eileithyia was originally a Cretan goddess whom the Greeks adapted into their own mythology. She was a daughter of Zeus by Hera. Sometimes she is associated with Artemis, who has been referred to as "Artemis Eileithyia".

I pronounce it "ie-LIE-thee-ə" or "ie-lie-THEE-ə", but I don't know if that's correct.
