re: What do you think of this spelling?

Quoting Mrs. God of Thunder:" It sucks, man. I've seen Alivia, but not that crap... Until now."

Hahahaha.

Ask how it's pronounced. just to call attention to the spelling.

Quoting willoughfam:" Ehhhh. I wouldn't do that. I like no so common names with normal spellings, but that is just me. I didn't ... [snip!] ... Oliva until my SIL named my niece that. But some people just spell things different. My sister named one of her kids Mathieu."

  the eff? That's just stupid.

Any who...
Alyvia is terrible.

I do not understand why that spelling is so common. It looks horrible. If you pronounce Olivia with an ah sound then whatever but Alyvia? Phonetically that looks like aly vee ah. Tell her that, that her craptastic trendy spelling doesnt make any damn sense. Ys cannot replace every vowel in a name and it will still sound "correct". Just tell her to stick to Alivia.

Quoting Mrs. God of Thunder:" That spelling too would make it pronounced like Aly-vi-uh."

YES.. please tell her this... jeesh.
