My instinct is definitely Loo-see-a, as one of my friends from early childhood had this name and pronounced it like that.

3

It can be said as Loo-sha, loo-SEE-a, or loo-CHEE-a. I say Loo-SEE-a personally

4

loo-CHEE-a is the most distinctive imo, but of the two options I picked loo-see-a

5

I’d pronounce it Loo-see-ah

6

I pronounce it as loo-sha.

7

Definitely loo-see-uh! It’s one of my favorite names. That pronunciation is my first instinct for sure.

8

I’ve only ever met one, and she pronounces it Loo-sha, so that is my first instinct.

9

My grandmother was Loo-sha so thats my go-to pronunciation

10

I would have said [name_u]Lou[/name_u] Chee ah!

11

I prefer the [name_u]Lou[/name_u]-sha pronunciation, but the only person I’ve ever known with this name pronounced it “[name_u]Lou[/name_u]-chee-a”.

12

I prefer the Loo-see-ah pronunciation out of the three. However I grew up with someone who pronounced their name Loo-sha so that’s my natural go to

13

I’ve always heard it Loo-CHEE-uh

14

I automatically go to loo-CHEE-a as an Italian speaker.

15

I think if you’re Spanish, it’s loo-SEE-a; if you’re Italian it’s loo-CHEE-a. I never heard it pronounced loo-sha.

16

I say loo-sha as that’s how the place (St [name_f]Lucia[/name_f], a Caribbean island) is pronounced which is the context in which I was introduced to the word

17

My first instinct is Loo-CHEE-ah.
