I like the name Aaliyah Dana

[SomeGuy37]

Alee-yah, but with 'Dana' is isn't smooth, sweet, and lyrical!!
Aliyah Dayna, maybe, pronounced "Alee-Yah, Day-nah"
say it, out loud, and it sounds nice!!
Also, think about when she learns letters, and how to write her name!! Don't make it complicated!!
I have a MESSED up first name, and Last name, that NOBODY says right!! It really FCKS with a kid's self-esteem!!
There is some research, linguistic, that says that the sound of names, enhances the impression, of others, when they meet.
I kind of like this one, at work, and she goes by 'Katie,' a little girl's name, and she is not a little girl! He given name is Katherine Marie, and she doesn't like that, when I call her by her given name, though it is Mature, and ELEGANT, befitting a Proper Lady, like I think she is.

uh-LEE-ah or uh-LY-ah

That would be my guess.

Pretty name but it will get mispronounced very often.

[SpanishInquisition]

Ah-ley-yah, the first two syllables kind of like a matador saying Olay, and the last one a little drawn out

[abc3643]

When she was alive, we said "Aye uh lee uh"

[JustinTheGreat]

I always thought it was pronounced
Uh-lay-uh

[JustinTheGreat]

But now that I pay attention to the spelling that pronunciation doesn't make sense because of the I in the name. So I guess the first one sounds best
