I just noticed that one of my favorite name Azalea has two different pronunciations on Behind the Name. I've only ever heard one of them and I was wondering which one you guys use. TIA!

    I (obviously) love the name, but agree with MJ, I tend to say it both ways, the difference is not an obvious one to me.
