Rela, pronounced Ray-la?

Sorry not that keen - sounds a bit hard to me and I just think of a rail...if you like it though go for it? Is it a foreign name?

No idea, it was in a book I just read and couldn't decide of I liked it or hated it.

Hard to pronounce - my first thought was Ree-la, then Rel-la. Sorry...

Hmm not great, sorry.

Also not a fan.

Really, Rela? Hmm not convinced. Pronunciation might be an issue, I would pronounce it as it looks re-la. If you like the sound of Ray-la then just spell it as it sounds.

I don't like it.

Apart from that it also sounds like something to do with a train.

It is one that you would have to continually correct people over (or have it said incorrectly)... so it depends if that would bother you.

I quite like Rae and Raine, but not Rela.
