I would like to name my daughter Drea Marie or Dreya Marie but a few people have asked how i will spell her first name as they thought it might be mispronounced.
Drea Di Matteo from Desparate Housewives has no Y but the other way is Dreya like Freya. What do you think?

I think you would be betetr off calling her Andrea tbh, then people wouldn't be so confused and you could still call her it for short iyswim?

I hope not to sound rude but it doesn't look too pretty on paper, it looks like a few words that aren't that positive.
