Hiiii,

I really love the name Lilo... but how would you pronounce it?

I really don't like the other possible spellings so I'm just wondering if you'd pronounce it like I would 😊

Lee-low is what comes to mind first, because I love Lilo and Stitch!

I think it's cute, at least she won't be the 75th Evey or Ava or Wren in her year.

she will definitely want to lie low if you name her that.

I asked how you'd pronounce it, not whether you like it or not. No need to be rude.

Lee-Low but I’m German and it’s not unusual there. In case you’re considering as a nickname, in Germany it’s short for Lieselotte.

That's how I'd pronounce it! Like Lilo & Stitch 😊
