Maybe 'congrats on the baby. is she named after someone?' then hopefully your friend will respond, 'yes after my ____ ' and say the name for you?!

Probably Lee-ann, but I would likely say Lie-ann the first time just to tick the mom off.

I think if you make up a spelling of your child's name, that automatically makes it so you can no longer be offended by people mispronouncing it.

No clue. I think it wouldn't be weird to ask her how to saying when you talk to her.

This. With that kind of spelling, she needs to assume that 90% of the population is going to need help pronouncing it correctly.

Nope. Not a fan of that name. I would straight up ask her how she pronounces it.

Probably Leanne but on principal I would say Lionel.
I would just ask. People can't be using weird spellings for things and expect everyone to just get it
