Not sure, but my guess would be--no-ell-ee-uh

that’s what I though, but sometimes it sounds like no-el-ya or no-ale-ya or even
no-ale-ee-ua or no-el-ee-uh

I just don’t know!

In Spanish you always pronounce each letter. So it would be Noh eh lee ah. If you say no (like know) and uh she may be a little offended because the vowels are very peppy in Spanish, unlike in englsuh where especially aylt the end of a word, we just
Kind of give up

Natasha, that’s what I though..all the vowels had to be pronounced, but the nurses at the hospital keep correcting my Mom and i for saying it wrong. They always start out by saying Noel and then something like
no-el-ee-yah or just no-el-yah

My name is Noelia, and it's pronounced like the two names "Noel" and "Lia/Leah" together. (Noel-Lia)
