Thoughts on Layla

Just wondering what people think of Layla?

We're really struggling to name out new baby girl. I was set on either Saskia or Anastasia but can't convience partner. He really wants India which I like but don't love it.

We both like Layla. But I think it's quite popular atm which is putting me off a bit, I really wanted something a bit more unusual. Also, do you think it would suit an adult? Thanks!

I do love Layla but it's very popular.... There are 3 in my daughters year at school.

I know a Layla a Leila and a Lola... Quite popular at the mo I think

I think we have the same taste... I love Saskia, Anastasia and India.

I think LEILA (spelt this way) is absolutely gorgeous.

I like it & prefer the Layla spelling.

I like it. I do like Saskia more though!

Isn't it Eric Clapton......not Billy Joel?.? Either way, nice name,

Leila, spelt like that. Lovely name I think.

Love it! Think it's really under-used actually as it's a very pretty name.

PocaNinja · 14/07/2019 18:39

Layla is lovely!

I prefer it spelled Leila, but don’t really like the name.
