Help[Opinions] Re: How do you pronounce
in reply to a message by Lily
I adore Leila (love the look, love the sound) - so delectable. I also love Leilani, although the vibe is very different.
I pronounce Leila, Layla, and Laila as LAY-luh. Leila is the only spelling for me! Laila I like the least.
Lila is LY-luh and I think I slightly prefer Lilah.
btw, an elderly relative was known as Lilie - LY-lee - and it was only recently that I discovered that this (or Lylie) was a not unusual nn for Eliza in Victorian times. I later found her real name was Eliza Mary.
