I'm not so good with writing out pronunciations but
Huh-ZEKE-ee-uh (similar sound as Ezekial)
I dont know if I would use it as a first name. Only because people are right its an awful big name for a little one to carry around.
How about using it as a middle name instead?
Hmm, I'm not sure, I guess either
1. Hez-ee-kee-uh
2. Hez-eh-kye-uh
I would have suggested just #1, but I think that is just influenced by the pronunciation of "Ezekiel". But I guess Hezekiah would follow the pronunciations of names like Zachariah or Isaiah...in which case I guess it should be pronounced as suggested in #2.
Best of luck to you!
