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

I’ve always read it as My-la, which I don’t mind, but I know a few and they are all Mee-la.

Dislike the 'mealy' sound in names such as this and Amelia

Same here.

100% Mee-la.

I read it as my-la, though I see I’m in the minority so perhaps wrong.

As there is a famous Mila (Kunis) I think the majority would be Me-la
