found this online

The girl's name Hallie \

ha(l)-lie\, also used as boy's name Hallie, is pronounced HAL-lee. Feminine form of Henry; variant of Harriet; nickname of Halimeda and Haralda. Halle (Scandinavian) is familiar in modern times due to actress Halle Berry.

We have named our puppy Halle :blush: :)

Though it's up to parents how they pronounce it - I would ask. Better to get it right from the start :thumbsup:
