Definitely [name_f]Myla[/name_f] with the long i sound.
Mee-la would be [name_f]Mila[/name_f]. I vastly prefer [name_f]Myla[/name_f] with the long I, it’s very pretty.

[name_f]Myla[/name_f] would be MIGH-la and [name_f]Mila[/name_f] would be MEE-la to me. The latter feels a lot more sophisticated to me.

Long I sound. I know two Myla’s and they both use this prn

[name_f]Myla[/name_f] = My-la
[name_f]Mila[/name_f] = Me-la

[name_f]Myla[/name_f] is my-la to me. Used to be my favorite girl name when I first got into names in 08/09.

I’d say MY-la :slight_smile: I know three little ones named [name_f]Mila[/name_f] and all but one says its MY-la also…I guess there are multiple ways to spell it AND say it!

Thanks everyone. We love the name [name_f]Myla[/name_f] but it has better meaning spelled Maila and I feel like that is harder to pronounce [name_f]Myla[/name_f] based on that spelling.
