too many L's?

andreafox920 · May 2010

Are there too many L's going on in Lilla? or should it be Lilah - although I'm not a big fan of an H at the end of a name...

how would you pronounce it? (I'm thinking - Lil-uh)

I'd pronounce Lilah like Lila - which I like better without the H (lie-luh). And I don't like Lilla at all - I wouldn't be surprised if people commonly pronounced that lil-uh, but maybe that's what you're going for.

Lila is my girl's name stuffed away in my pocket. No h b/c people forget to use it anyway (just like Sarah/Sara). Simple and easy - Lila. - I pronounce it Lie-Lah

I agree that many people would pronounce Lilla as LIL-uh, rather than LIE-luh. If you want the second (more common) pronunciation, either Lila or Lilah is fine.

Lill-uh. I love it but it is a tiny bit difficult to say because it just doesn't flow as well as some other names. I would use it as long as you don't have Ls in your last name. I like it much more than Lilah/ Lila.

What about Lyla?

Lila.

Lilla - lil-uh

Lilah/Lila - lie-luh

I pronounce Lilah and Lila the same way - LIE-lah. Lilla l would pronounce with a soft "i", like in Will or Lily.

If I just saw it, I would pronounce it Lil-uh (like the beginning of Lily). I personally prefer the Lee-luh pronunciation, but I like the spelling Lila.

I think Lil luh should be spelled Lyla. Lila is the word for lilac in spanish and I pronounce it lee lah when I see it. I would probably pronounce lilla the same way.
