It's pronounced "Ledasha"! Oh yes - you read it right- the dash is pronounced! This child attends a school in Livingston Parish, Louisiana. Her mother is irate because everyone is getting her name wrong. So if you see something come across your desk like this please remember to pronounce the dash. When the mother was asked about the pronunciation of the name she said "the dash don't be silent!"
