   Hah, I love it! A real Princess Leia [even if it's a different spelling] =)

   Yeah, but Leah is usually pronounced “lee-uh” and Leia “lay-uh”, so they aren’t really the same

   also, wasn’t this already posted? jw

   I agree Erin, they’re completely different names! It REALLY bugs me when people say Princess Leah when talking about Princess Leia because to my ears theyre really different. I dislike Leah as a name greatly but Leia to me is really beautiful.

   You have to remember that the Norwegian pronunciation is very different. Actually, in Norway Leah IS pronounced ‘Lay-uh’, not ‘Lee-uh’.

   I think Martha Louise just said that as a joke.

   Leah Isadora isn’t a princess though. She’s just Leah Isadora Behn.
