I LOVE this name because it is my name. I was born in the 70's and I only knew one other girl with the'same name. My parents researched the name because it was not very popular in the United Stated at the time. I spell it AALIYAH and pronounce it R-LE-YAH. My parents chose the Turkish pronunciation, so it is already Europeanized. In Arabic, "AA" makes an "R" sound because there is no "uh" sound in Arabic. The Arabic pronunciation is AL-LE-YAH. I feel empowered knowing that my name means ıthe female version of Allahı (not goddess).

There was a Hawaiian princess named alia. The name in Hawaiian means great joy. I once met a Hawaiian boy with the name Alia, so I guess it can be unisex there. Anyway, my name is Aleah and I love it. I always have. And it has only been the last few years that I have heard of anyone else having it.

Pavement cycling fginhters pedestriansPavements are for pedestrians. And people using thepavement have the right to feel safe and protected fromtraf?c, including bicycles.You may feel that you are doing no harm by cycling onthe pavement. And you may feel con?dent that you willnot injure or hurt anyone.But pedestrians don't share your con?dence. Becausewhile you know where you and your bike are going,they do not, and may beli've they are in danger.It's not easy for pedestrians to predict your exact route.They could be worried about a number of things:• Is the cyclist headed for the'same area of pavementas me?• Has the cyclist seen me?• Will the cyclist slow down as they get closer?• Will the cyclist be skilled enough to avoid me if theydon't slow down?Cycling on the pavement can be even more threateningto people with poor balance. Many of these people areolder or disabled and have a constant fear of falling.Cycling on the pavement simply adds to this fear.There is an epidemic of cyclists on the pavements in Weybridge.

My name is Aaliyah. I was Aaliyah before they called the late singer Aaliyah. Many people dont realize her real name wasnt Aaliyah but was Aeliyatt Dana Haughton. Aaliyah, Aeliyatt and Aliyah are of arabic origin and Aleah is of hebrew origin. There is a late princess named Aaliyah and a verse from a holy book with this name in it. People tend to mispronouce my name because the'singer Aaliyah misspronounced it, but the 'a' is actually not pronounced with an 'uh' but more of a throaty short 'a' sound as in 'apple'. Its a beautiful name that means sublime, lofty, up high (status). Most Aaliyahs are graceful,pretty and kind. Not to be confused with Aliyah/Aliyyah which is a different name which is the female version of Ali and pronounced the'same as Ali but with ofcourse a different ending. *Please keep in mind when you pronounce a name from different origins, mispronouncing it can change the meaning tremendously, where a name can mean truthful,it can be mispronounced to mean ugly for example. Research is always a good option, for children live up to their names. Just a thought!. Shot out to all my Aaliyah's in the world!

Besides I love the late singer Aaliyah, she was talented and beautiful. I'm sure my daughter will look much like her.

Actually there is the AA in arabic makes the hard A sound, there is definately the 'uh' sound in arabic. Secondly, Aliah is the female version of the name Ali. It means noble or highly exhaulted.

the correct way to pronounce it is: /hee-men'-ah/ In Spanish, X has 3 different sounds: /h/, /sh/ and /ks/. In this case, it takes the pronunciation of /h/. Of course... if you are a Spanish speaking person, this phonetics will not sound exactly right, but for English speakers, this is the closest we can get. It is a beautiful name and It's nice to make our best effor to pronounce it properly. By the way, I'll name my baby girl: XIMENA

My name is Aaliyah. All my life I have lived with mispronounciation after mispronounciation. I hate it. From ?a-liar? to ?ay-lee? to ?ar-liar? to even ?a-layer?. And not to mention the'spelling!! I have never met anyone who hasn't asked me to spell out my name as they write it. Teache's just give up and spell whatever. Besides, making a four year old suffer through writing out A-a-l-i-y-a-h is just cruel. i've gone by Leah for twelve years because I refuse to have someone say ?a-liar? as they read my name tag and have all my colleagues laugh.
