[Opinions] Re: I prefer Lila, but if you are trying to reflect the Indian background of the name, I like Leela better. nt

You will see both, but I think they use EE to make the pronunciations more clear. I know a Deep that uses the spelling Dip, so most people pronounce his name that way rather than the "i" making the "ee" sound. And like the other poster had said, some may misprounced Lila as LY-la. So I think that's why "EE" is used a lot. You can certainly use both, but I think EE just makes it look a little more Indian just in case that's what you're looking for.
