How would you pronounce this? I would say theory.

Just to add this is not my child's name, I'm reading a magazine and found this Blush

At first glance, I'd say Thea-Ray

Finfintytint · 19/06/2019 15:07

Thea-rye

MikeUniformMike · 19/06/2019 15:34

Was it in one of the less upmarket magazines - e.g. Takes the Biscuit?

wheresmymojo · 19/06/2019 15:38

Thea - Ray

TatianaLarina · 19/06/2019 16:13

Theory 😬

Jemimapuddleduckpancake · 19/06/2019 16:18

Thea - Rye

Fullmoons · 19/06/2019 16:24

As it's written: Thea-Rai (rai as in rye)

Cheerybigbottom · 19/06/2019 16:32

Thea-Rye

ZippyBungleandGeorge · 19/06/2019 17:28

Thea-Ray (Rai like rainbow), but if I was told it was thea-rye it wouldn't surprise me. Either way it's awful

TheVanguardSix · 19/06/2019 17:31

Thea Rye.

RAI is like Italian BBC.

You want Rae, OP.

TheVanguardSix · 19/06/2019 17:32

I’d think of other names. It really doesn’t work with Thea.

AshQ · 19/06/2019 19:07

Rai as rye.

flowery · 19/06/2019 19:09

Thea - Ray

TheRedBarrows · 19/06/2019 19:14

Theory with a Brummie accent.

TatianaLarina · 19/06/2019 19:42

Si Rai Uno, Due, Tre

Lilyannarose · 19/06/2019 19:52

Rai could be pronounced Rye (as in Kai)
Or Ray (as in Mai)
Either way I just see "theory".

Fullmoons · 19/06/2019 20:49

Rai is pronounced like Kai

Ray would be different

mummymonica · 20/06/2019 00:53

Thea Ray

SemperIdem · 20/06/2019 01:06

Same as you. It’s not great.

TanselleTooTall · 20/06/2019 01:16

Tee-a Ray. Confused that's what I'd assume it to be pronounced.

DickZillaofTheVilla · 20/06/2019 01:18

I just see Theory

HolUp · 20/06/2019 16:59

Was just making sure it wasn't just my overly northern self seeing it as 'theory'. Very odd name for a child. Poor girl will have the shit ripped out of her at school. BlushGrin

Fear ray or maybe Tia Ray by today’s standards. I have no idea but it’s fucking awful.
