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.

I would say tar lee uh.

However I met one who was a ta-lee-uh. It always confused me though and I had to always think about the pronounciations.

I'd say it like Italian

Tahhhhhhhl - ya

Champagne... I am the same - it really grates on me - one niece's name is Rebecca - a close relative is liverpudlian - and pronounces the cc like scottish loch sound.... grrrrrrrrrrr

I have a Talia pronounced Tah-Lee-ah

Emphasis on the second syllable
I don't like Tar-lee-ah where's the R?
or Tal-ya

Beautiful name Hebrew for Dew from Heaven (I am slightly biased)

It's Tar-lee-ur ime.

Rally dislike the Tal-ee-er pronunciation.
