[name_m]How[/name_m] do you want it pronounced? [name_u]Lee[/name_u]-lah or Lie-lah?

Congratulations! I like [name_f]Lilah[/name_f], it looks really nice. When I see [name_f]Lila[/name_f], I think “[name_u]LEE[/name_u]-la” instead of “LAI-la”

Hmm, I tried to add that but for some reason it got lost. We will pronounce it LIE-luh.

I like [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] in this case!

[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] is the go-to spelling for me, it’s my favourite as it looks the most “complete”, if that makes any sense?

I picked the name [name_f]Lila[/name_f] for my daughter before I even met my husband. It was my best friend’s pick too, before she met me.” I named my daughter [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_u]Brooke[/name_u], so I obviously prefer that spelling. She doesn’t seem to have an issue with mispronunciation or wrong spelling through the years. She is 10 now. My best friend went with [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] and her daughter is 8.

Congratulations on your baby girl!

I prefer [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] spelling for that pronunciation.
[name_f]Lila[/name_f] I do think “[name_u]Lee[/name_u]-la” initially

And I just prefer the look of "i"s to "y"s :slight_smile:
