I'll give you toilet i thought. Now i like it. My boyfriend sometimes calls out to me as tallula but more like taluuuuuuulahhhhhhhh. I've never met another twyla either. : (" (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Apr 10, 2008: "This is my name, and people remember me because of how unique it is. I know of one other Twyla when I was growing up; I used to hate my name when I was a kid, I wanted to be Jennifer or Julie. I'm so happy I have the name I do now! People compliment it all the time. I'm happy to be Twyla." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Feb 23, 2008: "I heard a woman on TV say that her name is Twyla and it is Indian and means flower. The web says it is English. There is another Twyla that lives about 20 miles from me and everyone thinks we are the same person because we look alike. I know of 6 Twyla's." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Dec 28, 2007: "I used to hate my name because it is unusual, but I like it now for that very reason! I have met only 2-3 Twylas in my life and what a trip that was. Everyone seems to know a Twyla or 2. I always have to spell it for people and it's mispronounced about half the time." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Dec 11, 2007: "It's my name and I love it! People are starting to get the hang of it, after 43 years . My name is pronounced like twi-lah; I've met two other women with the same name. I read somewhere once that Twyla is an Old English name which means woven of two threads; it also has several African derivations in the Swahili and Zulu languages." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Oct 29, 2007: "No, its not my name, but it is an old family name from centuries ago. There seemed to be a few girls named Twyla, and some called Thursa, in my mother's family. I think the last time was when two sisters were called Twyla and Thursa about two hundred years ago. I really like these names, but they seem to be very rare here in the UK." (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Apr 04, 2007: "THEY CALL ME VIOLET, TUYLA, TANYA, LAYLA, TAWALA ETC. IT IS PRONOUNCED JUST LIKE IT IS SPELLED BASICALLY (TWIELAH?) I HAVE MET AND HEARD OF A FEW OTHER TWYLA'S. A COUPLE ARE EVEN FAMOUS (TWYLA THARP (DANCER) AND TWILA PARIS (SINGER). IT IS AN OLD FASHIONED NAME LIKE ETHEL OR OPAL. WHEN I WAS A CHILD THEY CALLED ME TOILET AND SUCH. I HATED IT THEN BUT NOW I LIKE IT BEING A UNIQUE NAME AT AGE 47." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 20, 2007: "I know how you feel they do the same thing to me lol And i have the same reaction." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Jan 12, 2007: "I love that name! If you have that name, and don't like it, your crazy!" (Report as inappropriate)

  • Comment left Oct 26, 2006: "This is my name, and people very often spell it wrong. I have it spelt Twilda, Twiela, Tweela, and most commonly Twila. I have never met anyone else with this name, but my aunts name is Wyla. You say it just like it's spelt, T-W-Y-L-A... it's that easy." (Report as inappropriate)
