Use the word "a" because "utopia" begins with a "y" sound.

If used at all it would be "a" because there is no vowel sound. Yu is not a vowel sound. Now if Utopia is a specific place you don't use "a". I am going to Utopia. Now if utopia is a type of place then it would be, I am going to a utopia.

theoretically, when writing a consonant should come before a word that begins with a vowel. there are always exceptions, but i think in this case a utopia sounds better.

A--it goes by the sound and "ye" is not a vowel sound. An honest utopia is with "an" though!

use an! The rule is to always use and before a word that starts with a vowel! And if you end up getting it wrong, argue the unjust call of the teacher!

Use "a"
This is one of the only times that the rule of "use
'an' with consonants" is not in effect; because the word starts with a "y" sound.

an because using 'an' always before a vowel (a,e,i,o,u).
