Comment left Jul 04, 2010: "This is my name! I think it's really interesting how popular it is all of a sudden. I've never met anyone who spells it the same way I do but one time I was playing a soccer game against a girl who pronounced it the same way and it messed me up SO MUCH (The other team kept yelling, "Lyla" this and "Lyla" that!) I feel sorry for all the Hannahs and Sarahs and Rachels of the world now :) And yes, people ALWAYS spell my name wrong (Lila) when I say it to them, and frequently say it wrong when they see it written (How they're getting leelah out of it, I have no idea.)"
