Re: Lilah
in reply to a message by Miss Natla
I would pronounce it as Lie-la in English and as Lee-la in Swedish.
I think Lilah is beautiful name. I don't like names ending with a mute H, unless it is a biblical name, so I would prefer Lila. But then again, maybe you see it as a short form of Delilah?

I didn't actually associate the name with Delilah until my mother pointed it out, but now it's the only think I associate it with. I used to love the name Delilah, so this works out well.
I prefer H's on the ends of names like Lilah and Norah because it "finishes" the name for me. Plus, H is one of my favourite letters.
