I cringe at the thought of someone mispronouncing my child's name as Ada. No offense to those with the name Ada, but that just isn't how "Adia" is pronounced. Good gracious that "i" is there for a reason. 
Adia Jade is pretty.

Thanks, Soror!
And that's how we pronounce it - with the emphasis on the 2nd syllable. Maybe if we had gone with "Hadiya" it would have been easier. At least I don't think anyone would have called her Ada.
Believe it or not, we also have problems with "Jade". We hear "Jay?" "Jane?" So she's gotten to where if someone asks that she says "Ja
de" (with much emphasis on that "D"!).
