Actually,I think you're wrong,Tadgh.Estrella is sometimes pronounced  something 
like e-strel-yah,I believe.I think this is the way Castilian Spanish does it.I 
might be wrong;this what I remember from what my parents told me and what I 
spoke when I was a child.I lived in Spain when I was small.Point here is that 
there are REGIONAL differences in pronunciation.I lived in Zaragoza.

Greetings,

Estrella is both. E-stray-ah, in Spanish; E-strell-a in English/'merican.

Okay, "wang" is pronounced "vvong" but the goober test is for the goobers not 
the name...so, yeah, I get your point, Angus.

As for a name that bards will write to inspire the people, Adalia, you could 
write an inspiring war song if the name had 7 syllables and half the letters 
were "L".

Regards,
Tadhg
