As mentioned in another Poll, I'll probably name this baby Lilia, assuming it IS in fact a girl.

If you saw printed on a page the name "Lili" how would you automatically assume that was prounounced?

Lily?
"Lee-Lee"?

Lee Lee

I would probably say Lily

Lee Lee

Lee Lee

Do you not like it with the "y" or do you just prefer the "i" spelling because that's the way it is in Lilia?

I like it fine with the Y. Was just considering, briefly, using an I. I don't think that feels right though. Particularly since I thought most people would look at it and think "Mimi", pronouncing it Lee-Lee.

I would think Lily.

Lily

I would think Lily, but I have a student in one of my classes whose name is spelled Lila and she pronounces it Lay-la, so I wouldn't be sure. Last year I had a student named Leili who pronounced her name Lily.

I would think Lily.

Lee Lee was my first thought.

I'm not sure. I look at it and think it should be pronounced Lee-Lee, but I'd probably guess that it's a different spelling of Lily.

I'm not all that fond of Lili. If an alternative spelling is required, I'd nominate Lillie, but I think Lily or Lilly are preferable over all others.

I voted Lily, but I may be biased since that is Madelynn's middle name. :)
