What about the name Amia?

One of our radio DJs this morning mentioned his kids names, and one was Amia (Uh-MEE-uh) and I thought it was so pretty. I'm just guessing on the spelling, though. Different, but not too far out there. I'm not a big fan of just Mia, but I like Amia.

What do you think?

I'm not a fan. But it would be a great way to honor someone named Amy, lol. I would like Amya (I have no idea of a spelling either, but pronounced "uh-my-uh") better. Or Amyra.

Not familiar with Amia, or the Amya spelling either.

Amaya is very pretty and so is Amalia.

NMS.  Uh-mee-uh sounds like a chemical to me.  Amalia is much prettier.

I think people would always be pronouncing it like "Amy-uh." I do really like Amaya though.

I like Amy and Amya... but Amia is odd.

I like Mia better than Amia

I have a friend named this. It's a Hebrew name. Her mom is Israeli. Spells it just like you have above.

I think it's pretty, but everytime she introduces herself, people think her name is Mia. ("I'm Amia" runs together.)
