Hi everyone!
I was at the library yesterday and there were drawings of little kids hanging on the wall. Of course I looked at the names... One name just blew me away, it was Nejla. I think it's so beautiful! WDYT?

I was at the library yesterday evening and saw a girl standing next to the drawings. And she said to someone: I made this one. So Nejla is a blond haired girl with huge blue eyes. I found that really odd, I had expected her to be Arabic...

I like it if it's prononced Nay-la. It reminds me of Neila, a name given to little girls born on Yom Kippur. :)

If I can't pronounce it right away, chances are, I won't care for it. It looks odd.
