I'm not choosing a name, just having a healthy debate with a friend. Around here, I've only heard of it was Tal-ee-uh but she says she'd say is as Tar-LEE-uh.

here, Talia is a common Jewish girl's name and is always pronounced Tal-ee-uh. I have a cousin Thalia - TAR-lee-uh.

Tal-ee-er

Tar-lee-er is spelt Thalia.

Tar-lee-ah- short for Natalia no?

This is a relative of mine's name. They pronounce it Tar le ah. They do live in the states if that has any bearing on it?

Tar-lee-ah

Tal-ee-ah, I think like surf25!

Might depend on local accents, but around here it would be ta-lee-uh
