Calia?

Is this a made up name? I couldn't find it on the Baby Names World website. My mom saw it in a book.

Pronounced CAH-LEE-UH?

I had a student by that name, but spelled differently.  It's okay, I guess.

Not sure of the pronunciation. That's why I was trying to look it up. Not sure if I like it or not either.

Hmmm. CAL-ee-uh, I actually like.

Cuh-LEE-uh, I don't like. At all.

When I looked quickly I thought it was Calla, like as in Lily.

I am pronouncing it cal-ee-uh, and I think it is actually a really pretty name! I didn't find it on any baby name websites either though. When I searched, this is what I found:

1. Caliana, which I also think is very pretty https://www.babynames.com/name/Caliana

2. Callia, meaning beautiful in Greek https://www.babynames.com/name/Callia

3. A princess in World of Warcraft named Calia - ha!  https://www.wowwiki.com/Calia_Menethil

I have a friend who named her little girl, Cali. It's French! I like both names. It's unique and original!

The how do you pronounce it question reminds me of my own daughter. Her name is Talia, and we say it like the end of Natalia. I never thought about people pronouncing it differently, but most people pronounce it Ta-LEE-ah when they see it on paper.

I have never heard it, but it is pretty.  If pronounced CA-lia.

Seems made up to me - but pretty not waco made up.  and there are not extraneous "y"s in there.

My childhood babysitter named her daughter Kahlia with the Cuh-lee-uh pronunciation (which I'm assuming Calia is). I think it's pretty, but I may be biased.

Sounds made up, but actually kind of pretty. I would pronounce it Ca-Lee-uh
