Dejah

Meaning: (Already, Remembrance, Use of the French "déjà vu". Also short form of Dejanira, from the Greek name Deianeira, the wife of Hercules. Variant of Deja.)

Origin: (French, Spanish)

Pronunciation: (DAY-hah, DAY-zhah, DAY-juh, DEE-juh)

Gender: Female, possibly Uni-Sex

I keep seeing the movie John Carter advertised on T.V and the princess in the movie is named Dejah. John Carter is based on the Martian Series by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Seeing as this is already a name in a series of novels it can still be used but many might think you got it from Burroughs novels. Oh and the pronunciation is a bit tricky. The above pronunciations are all the ways I could find to say this name. In Burroughs novels I believe if it pronounced DEE-juh, I think. It is pretty and unique.
