I love it, and pronounce it as you do :slight_smile:

I think most people would pronounce it Ay-dah like your family does. A friend of mine did a similar poll and quickly found out that this was the case. She preferred the sound [name]Add[/name]-uh, though, so she spelled her daughter’s name [name]Addah[/name].

My friend [name]Ada[/name] pronounces her name as ‘odd-dah’ or like the beginning of [name]Autumn[/name] with the ending ‘dah’.

I pronounce it Ay-da as well. I think it’s the most common pronunciation

No matter when excatly the [name]Ada[/name] to be honored was around, to use her name is a sweet tribute. Plus it’s cute!

I pronounce it AY-duh.

I say “ay-duh” as well.

I say AY-dah, as well, but if it was the Biblical [name]Adah[/name], I would say [name]AH[/name]-dah. :slight_smile:
