原It is unfortunate that a name with such interesting origins is hardly ever used in the country it comes from (i.e. Greece). The reason behind this is that in Greek, a word meaning, more or less, ''stupid'' sounds exactly like the native pronunciation of this name.
原Ilithyia looks awkward and seems too elaborate/contrived for a human baby, but I admire it all the same. It's a very ancient, historically-rich name; Eileithyia was originally a Cretan goddess whom the Greeks adapted into their own mythology. She was a daughter of Zeus by Hera. Sometimes she is associated with Artemis, who has been referred to as "Artemis Eileithyia".
I pronounce it "ie-LIE-thee-ə" or "ie-lie-THEE-ə", but I don't know if that's correct.

译 我只是查找更多的信息,显然它实际上是发音i-LI-thee-uh,与短'i'的声音。现在,我真的很喜欢它!

译 我不喜欢这个名字的前两个音节(英语)是“我说谎”的事实。

译 不幸的是,一个有着这样有趣的起源的名字在来自它的国家(即希腊)几乎不被使用。这背后的原因是,在希腊语中,一个词的含义,或多或少,“愚蠢的”听起来完全像这个名字的本地发音。

译 Ilithyia看起来很尴尬,似乎太精致/为人类的宝宝设想,但我赞赏这一切。这是一个非常古老,历史悠久的名字; Eileithyia最初是克里特岛女神,希腊人适应他们自己的神话。她是赫拉的宙斯的女儿。有时候,她与Artemis有关,Artemis被称为“Artemis Eileithyia”。\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e我发音为“ie-LIE-thee-ə”或“ie-lie-THEE-ə”不知道这是否正确。
I pronounce it "ie-LIE-thee-ə" or "ie-lie-THEE-ə", but I don't know if that's correct.
