We love the name [name_f]Lyla[/name_f]/[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] but are wondering about the spelling. Although I like the look of ‘[name_f]Lila[/name_f]’, in [name_m]New[/name_m] Zealand it would end up getting mis-pronounced as ‘[name_f]Lil[/name_f]-a’ which I don’t want.
We also like [name_f]Lola[/name_f].
[name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]…
[name_f]Lyla[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]…
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]…
Any preferences?
I prefer [name_f]Lila[/name_f], but out of your choices I would chose [name_f]Lilah[/name_f]. [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] looks really trydny and [name_f]Lola[/name_f] doesn’t age well in my opinion. Would you be interested in a longer form of [name_f]Rose[/name_f] like [name_f]Rosalind[/name_f], [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f], [name_f]Rosamund[/name_f] or [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]? [name_m]Just[/name_m] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] in the middle is very fillerish.
I prefer [name_f]Lilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] 100 percent. It Is spunky and gorgeous. [name_f]Lola[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is so adorable!
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] just reminds me of that song “[name_f]Lola[/name_f]” by the Kinks, so I can’t see that name on a little girl.
Would [name_f]Lila[/name_f] get mispronounced? In Australia every little [name_f]Lila[/name_f] I’ve known is spelled “[name_f]Lila[/name_f]” an pn. lye-luh. But if it would, I would go with [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] 
I would prefer [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]. For me it sounds best
[name_f]Lola[/name_f] is always one of my favourites!
[name_f]Lilah[/name_f]. It irks me without the ‘h’.
I prefer the spelling [name_f]Lila[/name_f]. [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is gorgeous.
I like [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]!
I am not crazy about [name_f]Lola[/name_f]…just reminds me of the songs…can never get past that.
I’m a [name_m]New[/name_m] Zealander. I don’t think it would get mispronounced - and if it does you can just correct people? I much prefer [name_f]Lila[/name_f] to the other spellings, although [name_f]Lola[/name_f] is my favourite between [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Lola[/name_f].
[name_f]Lyla[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] and [name_f]Lola[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] are adorable.
I love both [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Lola[/name_f]. I find it hard to stomach the other spellings of [name_f]Lila[/name_f], if I’m being honest–I would rather deal with telling literally every person I came across that her name is [name_f]Lila[/name_f], L-I-L-A, pronounced lye-lah, than to just spell it [name_f]Lyla[/name_f] or [name_f]Lilah[/name_f]. [name_m]Both[/name_m] look really trendy to me. But, sweet and spunky though [name_f]Lola[/name_f] is (I met an adorable one several years ago, and she still sticks with me!), I can’t really see it standing alone. It has that ultra-sexy vibe for a lot of people, and to others it’s just really cutesy… it can stand on its own, but I wouldn’t really recommend it. Out of all your options, I would probably go with [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], mainly because it retains a lot more of the image and feel of [name_f]Lila[/name_f] for me–[name_f]Lyla[/name_f] just feels like something else entirely.
(For loving both [name_f]Lila[/name_f] and [name_f]Lola[/name_f], I sure came down on them hard, didn’t I? I just am not a fan of nicknames as given names, or misspellings, so maybe I’m not the best to judge. Spellings and nicknames and such aside, I do prefer [name_f]Lila[/name_f] to [name_f]Lola[/name_f], and out of the two spelling options you have, I like [name_f]Lilah[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f] best. Good luck!)
Mmmm, I am now thinking [name_f]Lila[/name_f] (love the spelling) much better than the other options. [name_m]Just[/name_m] hope she doesn’t get called lil-lah or lee-la…
Thanks for your input …
I love [name_f]Laila[/name_f] best, but of yours, [name_f]Lila[/name_f]. [name_f]Lola[/name_f] feels sort of childish in a [name_f]Lolita[/name_f] way, which is creepy. [name_m]Just[/name_m] be careful with [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f], as [name_f]Lila[/name_f] is purple in [name_m]German[/name_m] and [name_f]Rose[/name_f] is pink in [name_m]French[/name_m]. If that bothers you at all.
[name_f]Lilah[/name_f], definitely.
My favorite is [name_f]Lyla[/name_f]. Beautiful name and it looks nice too!
