I want it pronounced Ee-la. I have found multiple spellings but the main spelling is [name_f]Ila[/name_f]. I am trying to avoid mispronunciation and made up spellings that look ignorant.
Eela and Eala do not look appealing to the eye. [name_f]Elah[/name_f] isn’t I’d go for but of the three options, it’s my favorite. I greatly prefer [name_f]Ila[/name_f] for the spelling.
Eela makes me think of eels, and Eala looks like it should be “ee-ah-la.” [name_f]Elah[/name_f] looks like a misspelling of [name_f]Ella[/name_f]. I would stick to [name_f]Ila[/name_f].
