How would you pronounce this child's name: "Le-a"

Leah?? NO
Lee - A?? NOPE
Lay - a?? NO
Lei?? Guess Again.

It's pronounced "Ledasha" Oh yes...you read it right. This child attends a school in Livingston Parish, LA. Her mother is irate because everyone is getting her name wrong. So, if you see something come across your desk like this please remember to pronounce it correctly.

When the mother was asked about the pronunciation of the name, she said, "the dash don't be silent."

Bullsh*t!? That was so stoooopid, it took me a second..."the dash don't [sic] be silent" cleared the air for my ain't-gettin'-the-stupidity grammatical mind.

Good gawd of forsaken education...

Stop it, please. My sides are about to bust from laughing so hard. And they act like they have some god given right to be stupid; hence...ebonics!
