It’s Mee-la - it’s a Russian/Balkan name and a diminutive of Ludmila (lood-mee-la)

IVEgotthePOWER · 23/07/2018 07:51

Miller makes me think Muller!

Myla / Mylah is Myla

MIL-A. Never heard of Mee-la?!

I'd say mile - a

But it is whatever you chose it to be (within reason Wink)

Also YY to this.
Another one here disliking the ‘mealy’ sound! I can’t stand Amelia either.
