my name is from greenland-Naja and it's pronounced Na-i-ya
it Maja similar?
How would you pronounce the Swedish name Maja?
Yes. It would be the same. In nordic countries j is often pronounced as I.
The same goes for Katja pronounced kat-i-a. I had a Swedish friend whose name was Maja, and her name was pronounced Ma-i-ya, the i being like "aie!" in Scottish.
Reply:Possibly and you could pronounce it that way if you wanted but just looking at it people would think that is would be pronounced MY - A
Reply:Yes it's the same pronunciation. They're both lovely names!
