Excuse the (temporary) ignorance - is it Mee-kah or My-kah or something else? Which syllable does the stress fall on?

I wait to hear how the owner pronounces it!

Mica the mineral is definitely my-kah though.

I would say Mee-ka unless told otherwise

@CatkinToadflax I knew a Maike which is similar and it was pronounced my-kah. It’s actually top of my list for another girl if I ever have one! Might spell is Maika though.

It’s definitely My-ka.

Ashley Banjo pronounced his son's name as My-cah on BGT tonight. (Don't judge me Blush)
