[Opinions] Re: Laila
in reply to a message by Perrine
I like Laila. I had a colleague named Laila and it was pronounced LIE-lah, even though it was from the Arabic Layla.
Maybe keep in mind that only English speakers pronounce Layla as LAY-lə. I've heard Layla in Arabic only as LIE-lah.
I pronounce all of those as LIE-lah, with a subtle difference in Leila that I cannot convey in English. It's more of a sound in between LIE and LAY.
