What do you think?
Pronounced A-lay-thea

Really dislike it. Overly fussy, too many syllables, really clunky... and still manages to be utterly boring. In the same stable as Anthea or Anita.

Not keen, I think it's a bit 'clunky' to pronounce. I prefer Althea or just Thea. Love Athena.

Are you a Ship of Magic fan by any chance?

MamaDane · 21/12/2020 17:43

Lovely name, OP. I would pronounce it A-Lee-Thea though

Lucylivesinamushroomhouse · 21/12/2020 17:40

Well I LOVE it! It means truth. I know one who goes by Thea, also a lovely name

Its horrible i think, very try hard. But each to their own.

Not a fan personally

I would thin it should be pronounced A-lee-thee-a

It sounds to me like someone with a lisp trying to say Alicia.

It makes me think of the alethiometer from His Dark Materials.
That may or may not be an issue.

AuntieStella · 21/12/2020 17:23

The one I know in RL pronounces it A-lee-thee-a and I think that's a lovely name

Theimpossiblegirl · 21/12/2020 17:22

I prefer Aletheia (aleetheea) or Althea but your version is fine, it's a classic, underused name.

I worked with one years ago. Hated her name apparently.. Used Lea.
Had a dd...
Guess what she called her?!
Not my cup of tea...
We had Athena on our list.
