Uh-VI-ya

(long I for Vi/ay)

I'd pronounce it "Ah-vye-ah" (with "vye" rhyming with eye, pie, lie, tie, etc)

[Anonymous]

Uh VAY yuh

Not saying it's right, but as a teacher, if it came up on my class list, that would be my attempt.

It's really pretty.

Same as all the above and agree with PP that it is a super pretty name.

Yes. There's a tech company with this name and that's how they pronounce it, so that would be my best guess.

Ew. It’s a phone company. Just no.

You pronounce however “Avaya” says to. You ask, and then you go with whatever they say.

Problem solved.
