Béla is a common Hungarian Male name. It is pronounced
Bay-luh. Most people see it written without the schwa over the "e" and
assume it is pronounced Beh-luh. The media has helped this by mispronouncing the following famous Bélas: Béla Lugosi, Béla Karoly, Béla Bartók, Béla Fleck, and Béla
Kiss. Bela
