Comment left Nov 24, 2011: "My grandmother's name was Lily, but she used Lila often. I pronounce it as Lie-la, it can also be pronounced Lil-ah as in Lillian, or Lee-la, or other ways, but the most I have seen is Lie-la and that is what I prefer." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Nov 13, 2011: "When I was growing up I always HATED my name, Lila. I never go by that name. My mom always called me by my middle name. Now that I'm older I think its a beautiful, rare name. I only know of one other person with my name. It was who I was named after, my great grandmother. I never met her but she was a beautiful woman with a beautiful name!" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Oct 09, 2009: "I named my cat Lila pronounced "Lee-la". I spell it like that because the pronounciation in both French and Hungarian is as such when spelled that way. (I'm of Hungarian descent and live in Quebec) Love it! And it's great for humans too! :)" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Oct 07, 2009: "I am naming our daughter Lila Eloise and thought it was a unique name until my girlfriend said she just saw it in a People magazine as a "poplular" name. Ah man now people are going to think I named her that way. I have had that name in my mind for 2+years! :) I am not changing it however. I have an Owen, Miles, and now a Lila it just fits too perfect." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Oct 06, 2009: "I Love my name! I didnt realize it was such a popular name and used to feel sad about my name exspesially when people would pronounce it wrong... (eg... Lee- Laa, Lil-a, Lily, layla when my parents and great aunt who I was named after pronounced it Lye-la) But I have come to realize that it only takes one correction for people to get your name right and it is worth it to have such a cool name in a world filled with very popular names such as Hannah or Caitlin."

Comment left Aug 03, 2009: "My grandmothers name was Lila Mae. She was a beautiful person, so sweet and compassionate. I cherish the memories she created for me. We are expecting our first granddaughter and my daughter and son-in-law have chosen to pass the name down to her. I feel so blessed that they have given me this gift. I think it is a beautiful and unique name and spelling. My daughters name is Leah, so I think that will be cute to have a Leah & a Lila." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Aug 02, 2009: "I just named my daughter Lila Antoinette. Love love love the name - it just came to me, and once it was in my head there was no turning back! We pronounce it Lie-lah -- the only annoying thing is that some people do want to say "lillah" or "leelah" I have tons of friends that have had baby girls in the last 2 years and not one person has named their baby this. it may getting a bit more popular but it is still very unique and gorgeous."
