That’s hilarious and also how I hear her name in my head but I think we’re both hearing it incorrectly. I’m pretty sure she said somewhere that it is actually pronounced “lee-uh”, not “lie-uh”. I think the opening “ly” is the last two letters of a different word. Think quiet **ly** or slow **ly**. If @efh313 is going to be singing her name, it might be wise to double-check the pronunciation. The last thing he’ll want is @lyya showing up to correct him as soon as he posts his video… ---

You are correct @stan. It is Lee-ah, and I remembered that convo too, but confirmed via pm to be sure! 😉 ---

> [@So what's the story behind your gamer handle?](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/so-whats-the-story-behind-your-gamer-handle/19051/181): > > “Lyya” was the name of the first character I ever RP’d. IRL, people who know me call me “Ly,” which is pronounced “Lee” (as in the end of “Emily,” which is my real name). Because I’m so creative, I just tacked on a few letters to “Ly” to make my character. So in my head, “Lyya” is pronounced the same as “Leah,” though many people who read it pronounce it more like a Bostonian might say “Liar.” I’m cool with both. It’s all good with me! ---

That’s good, ‘cuz Valerie didn’t say, “Leah.” ---

That was beautiful! Except maybe “Nobody understands the plans the devs have… except for LYYYAAA” (I mean, I was hoping we would understand our own plans 😉 ) Gave me shivers! So lovely of you to make a song for Lyya. Thank you. 😍 ---
