Definitely Mira. I could be a nickname for Mirabelle.

Definitely Mila, I used to like that name a lot.

I like them all. Mila is my personal favorite. Mira is the most unexpected.

Well, difficult. Would probably choose Mira here. Friendly positive sounding with reminiscence of the fruity, very tasty Mirabelle/Syrian plum, a sweet yellow plum-like fruit that is a variety of greengage/reineclaude.

Hi Perrine !!!

I choose Mira.
It has a fascinating sound and it means a ton of things! (See also the submitted names).

---

Mia you know it means 'my, mine' so although it is increasing in popularity I would never use it.

---

Mila..here in Italy this is the name of the volley player in the cartoon 'Attacker you!' (Jeanne et Serge in French). This cartoon is still famous despite it is old so when you say Mila a lot of people could start to singing the song theme lol
I think it would be embarassing.

I don't like the sound of any of them, I'm afraid. So I'd use Miranda and shorten it to Mira rather than Randy!

---

Actually, I'd do my absolute best not to shorten it at all.

Mila, easily.
It's culturally what pleases my ear. I've got a Scottish surname but raised Polish. go figure.
No matter what Mira sounds like mirror to me. And Mia's too plain.

Mira! It's cute and it has a punch to it. Also consider Myra.
I like Mia too but not as much.
Mila's never intrigued me.

I love Mia. Mira is OK. Not a fan of Mila.

Please vote on my lists, thanks!

Mira!

---

I adore Mira and would use it in a heartbeat if I didn't hope to raise my children bilingual in English and Spanish (mira means "look" in Spanish, which isn't a bad word or anything but is kind of weird).

---

I also like Mila a lot. Mia is cutesy and nicknamey and yuck.

Mila. First choice, nicest sound.

---

Mira. Second, the r makes it slightly harsher. Plus it's a little close to mirror.

---

Mia. Third choice, too insubstantial/airy/short etc.

Mila is my favorite. I'd not pronounce Mira that way right off the bat, doesn't sound as pretty as the other two.
