How would people pronounce the name ARIYA. It is a name in itself as a different spelling of Aria. It is not the same name as Arya. The reason we like this spelling is our daughter will be mixed race eng/indian and we think the name looks more like an indian name and we like the spelling in general. Would you pn it the same as Aria or would you pn it as a-rye-a?

Why are people being arses about a heart that obviously isn't part of the OP's chosen name? It makes you look very childish tbh.

I have a friend who named her daughter this and pronounces it
A Rie Ah. Hope that helps!

It's absolutely lovely. We both really liked it but can only think of Arya Stark when we hear it sadly...

Is it

ashtrayheart · 22/02/2015 18:44

I was impressed by the heart, how do you do one on here?
I read it as Ah-ri-ah

Otilla stop being a cunt, she is only asking a question

dangerrabbit · 22/02/2015 18:32

I would pronounce it Aria.

loislines · 22/02/2015 14:58

I thought Aarya (pronounced like aria) was the Indian spelling. I'd pronounce Ariya with more emphasis on the 'ree' in the middle.

OttiliaVonBCup · 21/02/2015 22:20

Oh the irony.

StayGoldPonyBoy · 21/02/2015 22:05

I'd say at and spell it Aria. Ah-ree-a. I like it. A YouTuber I watch has children names Aria and Nolan which I think are sweet together

Fair point Wink

OttiliaVonBCup · 21/02/2015 20:50

You never know these days....

seaoflove · 21/02/2015 20:48

I thought the heart was just an indication of her love for the name.

I have no idea how you render such a thing on MN (or anywhere else for that matter) but there you go Grin

ZingTheGreat · 21/02/2015 20:47

is it the female version of Aryan?

no to both.
with or without the heart
