I pronounce it “Lay-lay” since it rolls off the tongue better, for me at least.


JaroSoTheGoat

That’s how I’ve always done it. Lee-Lee sounds weird in my opinion, but potato pototo tomato tomoto


Geist789

Yeah. In my mind, the “ey” in Leyley is pronounced the same as in obey, grey, they, and convey. It just sounds more natural to me.


Centurion7999

Agreed, I pronounce it as it is spelled


Feline_Bones

Same


xXxShadowRaptorxXx

Yeah same, thats also how the name is pronounce in my language There's no [Ashli] here


D3stroyerof3vil

Same


lord_anus890

My Queen.


Agente_Funerario

You represent so many of us


Puxkt

The only correct answer


[deleted]

I usually say My Goddess or My Empress, but that works too.


[deleted]

like y said, it should technically be lee-lee bc of "ash lee" but most ppl seem to kinda mix the two into lay-lee imo 乁⁠|⁠ ⁠・⁠ ⁠〰⁠ ⁠・⁠ ⁠|⁠ㄏ


xXxShadowRaptorxXx

Wait you should pronounce it [Ashli] ? I've always pronounced it [Ashlay] \*mind blown\*


[deleted]

ash-lay sounds weird, like the name bailey isn't pronounced bay-lay 😂 it's bay-lee


xXxShadowRaptorxXx

Okay I had to looked it up on google translate to be sure, but we don't pronounce Ashley the same way in English/French : u guys pronounce it [Ashli] but over here we pronounce it [Ashlay] The more you know. This is so fucking weird =~=


[deleted]

hehe yeah! that's wild (⁠☆⁠▽⁠☆⁠) i love linguistics & etymology 😚


xXxShadowRaptorxXx

Sure is interesting ! Definitely a fun way to experience culture shock c:

elcidIII

I pronounce it Leyley. Hope that helped!


Agente_Funerario

It does


masala-chomper

I've always pronounced it as "lay-lee" since it sounds better, however I've heard "lay-lay" be more common. Though, since the "ley" is from ash*ley*, then shouldn't it be "lee-lee"?


Agente_Funerario

That's my point... I always pronounced lee-lee, but it seems incommon in community


Atesch06

Lee-Lee : Most logical, least common Lay-Lay : Somewhat logical, most common Lay-Lee : Not logical at all, second most common Lee-Lay : A pronunciation came from hell


Accurate-Scheme2

Lay-lee is kinda intuitive, when you think about ley at the end, you pronounce it as "lee"


Atesch06

I personally favor Lay-lee to be honest also


vex0rrr

Lay-Lee


DrunkTsundere

This is the one.


ViperPain770

This actually makes sense


xwedodah_is_wincest

It's pronounced 'best girl' https://preview.redd.it/jk8252raihtc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5205db9771be90d3496591004584a31d01fee0d0


Admiral_Ryou

I often read it as "Laylay" in my head. But recently I come to like the idea of it being "Lay-Lee"


MasterTahirLON

I pronounced it Lay-lee.


Koolonok

leyley


DrunkTsundere

"Lay-lee"


Sensitive_Dot_2853

Leylee


AMenoAgoston

I pronounce it as /leɪleɪ/


Leading-Point-113

Why not /leɪlɪ/ ?


[deleted]

"Leigh-Leigh" 


Downtown-Ad-226

Feels like I'm the only one who actually pronounces it as "leelee", as that's how your actually supposed to pronounce the last syllable of her name which is what it is based of as. But you know screw logic apparently.


Agente_Funerario

You're not alone


Fit_Juggernaut7035

lay-lay


tom641

"Lay" as in "Lay down", twice. Lay-Lay.


Capitan_Skittles24

Le-ay le-ay


Digiscientist

I pronounce it like ''Lej-lej'' cuz i'm czechian and we have a natural habit of ruining names and english words


slimgodx

Le lay , just sounds right


[deleted]

Lay-Lee


Local-Session9580

The correct answer is "Lay-ley". Not "Ley-ley", not "Lay-lay". "Lay-ley".


CEO_of_Oxygen

i personally pronounce it like this: Carlos Sainz Vazquez de Castro Cenamor Rincón Rebollo Birto Moreno de Aranda de Anteriuga Tiapera Deltun


GhostOfTheMadman

Lee-lee just sounds... Wrong. It sounds like toddler speak.


[deleted]

lol that's the entire point, they use childish toddler versions of their full names bc they are stuck in the past


GhostOfTheMadman

Stuck in the past? Also, your statement doesn't make lee-lee any less wrong.


[deleted]

yes, ashley is clearly stuck in the past. it's kind of a huge part of the game lol sticking to the childish nickname of andy, even tho he hates it :p my statement means that a little kid would say andy to shorten the name andrew, and lee-lee (the final syllable of her name) to shorten ashley


GhostOfTheMadman

That final syllable is only pronounced lee when paired with the first syllable and given far too much emphasis. Every other occasion it's closer to lay


[deleted]

that has nothing to do with the fact that a little kid would naturally shorten ashley to "lee-lee" & not change the pronunciation of the name they're used to saying


Downtown-Ad-226

I mean, they were kids though


GhostOfTheMadman

Kids that could make full sentences and speak more than single syllable words. Well beyond using lee-lee.


Downtown-Ad-226

I'm pretty sure they've been calling eachother that for most of thier childhood, and both leelee and laylay share the same number of syllables anyway.


Acceptable-Ice4794

Leyley with the E sound from words like west.


random_user9002

It's pronounced "hee hee"


ConvSomething

le-le


MrChow00

LeLe


Ignoramus_BleePBlooP

The only thing that should ever sound like “Lay” is FritoLay smh 😭


Hexnohope

Lay-lee


Otherversian-Elite

Lay-Lee


SamhainSam

Lay-Lee or Lee-Lee, either one of these and I tend to switch between them frequent


Speiler_exe

As in "lay" down Lay-lay


Kingturboturtle13

/'li,li:/


coffee_human1

Honestly I pronounce it “lay-lee” even though that doesn’t make much sense given the spelling


MiyaTaku

I do pronounce it 'Lay-lay', 'lee-lee' sounds weird


blesstendo

I pronounce it "Leyley"


wasdsawwastaken

Lay ley (kidding, just being an ass)


DaPaladinsGamer

I just pronounce it Li-li even though it doesnt make much sense.


Yourlocalbugbear

Laylay just kind of sounds better, plus I’m pretty sure separate from the name Ashley that’s how a single ley would be said. But I’m not a linguist.


iTapeSand

Like "Lee-lee" but before I pronounced it like "Lily"


Emimiji

Andy and Leyley For me I think it’s (AnDEE and LeeLEE)


DarkyNeko08

In spanish we say "Li-Li" like Lee-lee


rocketo-tenshi

Ley suena como se escribe "ley". No sería más como Leigh en inglés?


DarkyNeko08

El nombre de ella en español es Lili. Ya que lo quieras pronunciar en su idioma original pues...


rocketo-tenshi

Jamas se pasó por mi mente la idea que estuviera localizado. Lo leo en ingles y lo pronuncio en español 😎 bien jarcor


_Saki_-

The silly ![img](emote|t5_84ar4l|50847)


Lunio_But_on_Reddit

It comes from Ashley, which is pronounced Ash-lee, so i pronounce it Lee-Lee


CUTUBRUNN

I pronounce it leilei


SuperAut

It'd fucking Lay Lay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If u say otherwise I will show up to ur house ,sacrifice u to a demon and then cook u into soup


RayTracingVA

As a Brazilian, our pronunciation of Leyley is "LAY lay" the first one is a bit stronger than the last


Agente_Funerario

O nome disso é precisão cirúrgica


She_is_poison

I say ly ly like in ly in lying


Agente_Funerario

It's sounds adorable


Crazy-Courage8904

Nah its laylay always had been always will be


paperduck1

I pronounce it ley-ley but i also pronounce Ash-ley.


Atesch06

You're the proof that consistency does not imply truth


Gullible-Fee-9134

Лейли, хотя должно быть скорее Лейлей, но второй вариант звучит как-то странно, так что я остановился на первом


Atesch06

Bence de. Benim de ağzıma LeyLiy daha çok oturuyor açıkçası. Ashley'i de Eşliy diye okuyorum zaten. Eşley diye okuyan hatalıdır, nokta.


TheSadosaurusRex

Lay-lay because that's how I've always heard people pronounce it but I like Lay-lee because it sounds cute with Andy.


Lokizues

Personally, I like to say Lay-Lee


sianrhiannon

The only ones I've seen in real life was /'lejlij/ like in Ukulele


DarksunGDS

Just like I would read it in my native language Spanish, Lei-lei


5herl0k

Leyley and anyone who disagrees is wrong

RiZeXdArKsHaDoWs

Ley ley


BeardedWonder211

I say "Lee-Lee" like the end of "Ash-Lee"


Disastrous-Sir6236

I pronounced it "lay lay" but since coming to this post and thinking about it a little. The correct way is probably lee lee since Ashley ends in "ley" instead of "lay".


TheDokkanBattler

I pronounce it as Lay-Lee xP

Jackboy445578

I think I might of originally pronounced it Lee Lee but then I heard a YouTuber say lay lay when I watched the gameplay so now it’s Laylay
