OKAY.. How would you pronounce this child's name: "LE-A?​

Leah?? NO​

Lee - A?? NOPE​

Lay - a?? NO​

Lei?? Guess Again.​

This child attends a school in Livingston Parish, LA. Her mother is irate because everyone is getting her name wrong.


It's pronounced "Ledasha", When the Mother was asked about the pronunciation of the name, she said, "the dash don't be silent."

SO, if you see something come across your desk like this please remember to pronounce the dash.
If they axe you why, tell 'em the dash don't be silent.​

My wife, a teacher in an alterntive school, says she's waiting for this to happen to her. ​

Nothing creative about it. It's stupid, and mothers like that sentence their kids to a lifetime of extra mountains to climb.

Stupid.

I think it should be pronounced "Lee-not-gonna-graduate-high-school-a".

True story: wife of a good friend worked in a doctor's office, and she thought she had seen every weirdly-spelled or pronounced name until one day a woman came in with her new-born baby girl. The birth certificate listed "Vagina" as the baby's first name. When asked, the mom said she didn't know what it meant, "but it sounded purty."
