First, what do you think of this name (pronounciation)?
It's OK. It blends in with trendies such as Riley and Kylie, and to some extent Kayley / Bailey / Hayley.
How would you spell it?
Miley. It's a fairly flimsy name as it is, so Mylee, Milee or whatever would not be good.
What middle names go well with it?
Miley Katerina came to mind. Like I said, I find it insubstantial, and Katerina is a seriously substantial middle name.

I haven't seen it before. I don't like it. Millie is cute though.

I love Millie. And a plus IMO is that it's really not popular in the USA; it's quite a bit more popular in England & Scotland, according to the popularity charts.
Miley makes me think of Smiley, which for some reason, just irks me. I prefer the Hawaiian spelling, Maile. I think I like the sound of the name better than any of the spellings. :-\
Alternatives to Miley:
Mila (like it prn either mie-lah or mee-lah)
Millie
Milana (like it prn Mee-lah-na)
Milena (like it prn Mih-lay-na)

Good point - Millie/Milly is so much cuter.
How many posts have we had on this name?
Honestly: Too many. Do a search for others who have posted on it.

I agree. It's been popping up everywhere all of a sudden. I don't see the appeal at all...
I pronounce it MY-lee and love it spelt Maile, although I don't think you'll get many fans of the name here TBH.

I like Miley. I like this spelling, but it makes me think "smiley" which really isn't a horrible thing.
