Ina, Illinois
Hi, my name is Ina and I live in California. I recently learned that there is a town with my name in Illinois. I was just wondering, how do the folks in Ina, Illinois pronounce the name of their town? My name rhymes with China, but many people I've come across pronounce it so that it rhymes with Tina.
