Thalia, pronounced Thaylia. From what I've seen on MN it's had a recent revival, with a different pronunciation. She's always hated having an unusual name & because of that she gave me a very uninteresting one so I wouldn't stand out Sad

Irene mn Margaret
The 'proper' pronunciation of her name is Eye-reen-ee, which my grandfather always used, but she 's usually known as Eye-reen.
