Noelia

[name_f]Noelia[/name_f]

What is your first impression of this name and how would you pronounce it at first glance? Thanks :slight_smile:

[name_f]Noelia[/name_f] is adorable! It makes me think about winter and [name_u]Christmas[/name_u]. [name_f]Noelia[/name_f] sounds friendly, sweet and charming. I would pronounce it noo-eh-leah.

It’s a very pretty name! The only thing is that my bad eyesight made me see it as [name_f]Noella[/name_f] at first, but that’s just me. I like the name a lot!

I’d pronounce it No-elle-e-ah

I think I prefer the more staid [name_f]Noelle[/name_f], but [name_f]Noelia[/name_f] is quite pretty too! Frilly and festive. I’d pronounce it no-WELL-e-uh.

It’s very pretty! My first instinct was to pronounce it like nole-ee-ah, like the end of [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f], but the pronunciation mentioned by PP’s makes more sense and is much more sing-songy, which I like in a name. So lovely!

Pretty & unique…I’d pronounce it as no-el-[name_u]LEE[/name_u]-ah.

I’d pronounce it no-elle-ee-uh

I really like it. Gentle and bubbly

I love [name_f]Noelia[/name_f]! It has a very sweet sound, though I do slightly prefer [name_f]Noelle[/name_f].
I’d say no-[name_f]ELL[/name_f]-ee-ah.

no-[name_f]ELL[/name_f]-ee-ah

wonderful choice, it’s very pretty name.

I would have initially pronounced it as [name_m]Nole[/name_m] -ee-ah (3 syllables) but it seems others see it as 4 syllables so unsure. I’m not real keen on it as I have known so many male Noels in my life that it just doesn’t work for me.

I know a 16 yo [name_f]Noelia[/name_f]. They pronounce it no-elle-ee-uh.
