What are some alternate spellings for the name "Bahia"?

Asked by Lovelocke (1394 points) | asked 1 month ago | 9 responses | “Great Question” (0 points) | Flag as…

I’m trying to find a friend of mine from long ago named Jim Lott, but after about 30 minutes or so of googling, facebook and myspace I can’t yield any results. I decided to go for searching for his sisters (He has three, though I believe I’ve only met 2).

One of them (the younger) was named “Bahia”, only, they didn’t spell it like that. The spelling of her name, I want to say, had a “J” and a “G” in it somewhere.

What are other ways to spell “Bahia”?

Baía. It’s the Spanish word for bay, just as Bahia is Portuguese for bay. Both are pronounced the same.

Is it pronounced Ba-he-a? If yes it could be Bahea, Beheya, Bahiya, or Bajia.

Yes “Ba-hee-ya” or “Ba-hee-a”

Bahá’u’lláh is the prophet for the Bahá’í faith. Maybe if you search it with the accents.
