The name Thea - is it a bit "out there"

We absolutely adore the name Thea for a girl

But I'm wondering if it's a little "out there" for some. Namely DGP's who all prefer simple names which you don't need to clarify the pronunciation of or the spelling. It's mostly PIL that I'm worried about. I know shouldn't care, but I doGrin

So have you heard this name much?

Would you give it a thumbs up?

Would you know how to pronounce and spell it without having to ask?

TIA

I know a few ranging from baby to 30 years old so not an issue unusual name at all

Not at all 'out there' but a nice name, i know several

It’s not even remotely out there. In fact it’s positively in there! Really lovely name either way.

Out there Grin?!

Is this a joke question?

It's in the top 100 most popular baby names. How can it be 'our there'?!Hmm

Thanks for the feedback....

Perhaps "out there" was a wrong choice of words Hmm

I’d pronounce it Tay-uh and I like it and think it’s not at all out there.

It’s literally everywhere these days. Thea and Isla. So many around!
