I pronounce it how I see it written: ill-ee-a
Yeah, the name "Ilia" can't really be pronounced any other way.

Eh? I thought it was Lillia I could have sworn there was an "L" on the screen when her name came up.

Nope, there's no "L," although sometimes it did seem like it.

Re: How do you pronounce Ilia? or is it Liilia?

I always thought it was Llia until I read it here; its just the capital I in TP looks like a lowercase L so her name seems as if its Llia

Re: How do you pronounce Ilia? or is it Liilia?

It's speled I-l-i-a. Ilia. Sometimes people get confused because the capital I and lower l look very similar. And that's it.

The Japanese version is "Iria" ( where the "r" replaces the "l" ) furthur proving it.
How it's pronounced, I'd say Ill-E-ah.

Re: How do you pronounce Ilia? or is it Liilia?

I always felt off when I said her name because I had NO idea how to pronounce it. Mostly because that kind of stuff is not my kind of thing.

But I say 'Ill-e-uh'
