Fila if you're sporty lol.
Leela. I always thought Lila was pronounced Lie-la.
Veela?

It's actually harder that I thought! I love Mila, is that not an option or are you just looking for alternatives?

You might have to go “foreign”. Eg
Camila in Spanish and Kamila in Slavic languages are both pronounced similarly to Ca-mee-la with the sound you want.

Eela is Finish

Abeela
Adeela
Ameela (Arabic)
Andeela

Probably lots more but I can't go through the entire alphabet. Think of a word that could be a name that you like, then Google it to see if it is already a name and has a meaning.

Why that particular sound? It's not a particularly nice sound...far too 'slippery' eel-a 🤣
