Camilla....

Firstly, I want to apologise as I feel like this has been done to death already, but I'm still no further forward and due any day now.

I have an orlagh, and whilst there are other names that I like (Eve, Eva, Anya and Thea) the one I love the most is Camilla. Given the obvious association, particularly in the current climate I thought it wouldn't be fair to name her Camilla, so was going with Camille. Since then, I've had my eyes opened to the whole pronunciation debate (Kah-mee/Ka-mill or Kuh-meal) and feel equally its unfair for her to spend a lifetime having to explain how to pronounce her name. Not even I'm sure of which pronunciation sounds nicest anymore!

Not really sure what I'm asking, more just thinking aloud I think, but can anyone offer any words of advice/ideas/alternatives perhaps?
