variation of Lila

What about Lylan ( pronounce Lie-Lin) I have always liked this name. Is there a better way to spell it.. Lilynne, Lilan? or will people get it confused with Lillian to easily?

I've never heard of it. Lilynne will probably get pronounced either Lillian or Lily-anne (it looks like you just forgot the 'a'). Lilan I would pronounce how you want it. Is this for a boy or girl?

This looks made up.  What's wrong with Lila?

I think you best bet is to stick with Lila/Lilah. The others look too made up like PP said.

It doesn't look like it is pronounced Lie-Lin.

It looks more like it is pronounced Lill Lan (rhymes with Dylan.)

If you want a name that looks like it sounds I would suggest the following ways of spelling it: 

Lylin 

Lilin 

Lilyn 

Lilynn

Lielynn 

Lielyn

I don't think any of those spellings work with the proposed pronunciation.  I have a name that was constantly mispronounced even though it is phonetically spelled.  You will find that even the most educated people will probably screw up this name with any spelling you choose.

Weren't all names, at one point or another, made up?!

I like Lylan. I think I Lilan or Lilynne will most likely get pronounced incorrectly. I think more people will most likely pronounce Lylan correctly. It's cute and if you like it, you should use it!

I don't really think you can variate it...

 

What about something like Elianna? (Ellie - ah - na)

megjr8

There's Laila (lay-la) too

I think lylan is least likely to be mispronounced.
