Amber
Thea
Hallie

My fave is Hallie but husband not that keen.

wheneverythinggoestitsup Oh! Then, I'm back to liking it again! So, Thea gets my vote!

Congratulations, btw!

I have known 3 Theas during my lifetime, and I've only ever heard it pronounced, as it looks Th -ee- ah

Its not pronounced Tay-odore in Greek. I have a Greek Theodore (Theodoros) and it's very much a Th sound at the beginning.

Never knew that about the pronounciation of Thea, always known it as Theee-ah.

I love Amber

I'd go with Thea as it has that connection to a family member and it's lovely

Amber. The other two are going to end up with people pronouncing then wrong.

*them!

@Curlies, I was referring to Ancient Greek, I mentioned Latin alongside it just because those two languages are the root of where our modern languages come from. You’re absolutely right about the th sound in modern Greek and I’ve only heard Thea pronounced Thaya in Greece.

I don’t like Amber but I really want to.

I really like Hallie.

And Thea is a great name - I might be biased!

And everyone calls her Thee ah with no problems so far (she’s 4)

I like Amber best of those. Not so keen on Thea or Hallie.

Thea. But I would use the Greek pronunciation Tay-a too. Because that's the way the Greek origin person I know says their name. I think it's lovely. I don't like Hallie even though a big fan of parent trap!

But also, you can pronounce it how you like! Just tell people how to say it like with other less usual names,

shadylady that's interesting. Now trying to think how the Greek aunty says it...

Not keen on Hallie at all. Amber is ok, Thea is lovely.

Love Thea -the way op is pronouncing it.

@Sooverthemill

Haha! Exactly where I got the name from
