Nyla, yea or nah?

[Steth]

really like the name but not heard of anyone else called Nyla. what are your opinions?

It rhymes with Myla. So I think of underwear.

Isn't it the name of Simba's girlfriend in the Lion King?

Got a niece called Ayla - lead character in the Earths Children series by Jean M Auel. Suits her :-)

never heard of myla underwear, just googled it and it looks tres nice :-)

I know a Nyla, she's a lovely wee girl , but I always think it seems like a bit of a "made up" name. Not in an offensive way at all, I just don't think it sounds "right"

Simbas girlfriends name was Nala

There was a Nyla in my class at school. She was of Indian origin so I assume that's where the name comes from?

Like Ayla but need an arabic name hence Nyla

Isn't Halle Berrys little girl called this? (or something similar)
I like Mila as a name and it sounds very similar, I think I'd agree it sounds a bit made up, but overall I'd say 'yey' rather than 'nay'

so general consensus is Yea?

I like it, although my first thought was Nylon.

I thought it was welsh

As long as your surname isn't Bone.

I know a few - it's a lovely name.
Spelt Naila as well, meaning successful/ the attainer/ achiever in Arabic.

I like the sound of it better without the 'L'. Thandie newton's character in the first Tom Cruise Mission Impossible movie was called Naya, pronounced that way. Nyla make me think of nylon as well.

Sounds like a name from Avatar.

Halle berrys daughter is called nahla (think its spelt that way) I like nyla its one of my choices :)

I know someone with a Nyla although I don't know whether she spells it the same.

Will end up with a sister called Polyestra. Not great

I think it was the name of Britney Spears' restaurant ( how do I know such dross?)
So it is a no for me.

I'm not keen. Nahla seems nicer to me.

I like it spelt Naila.

My health visitor was a Nyla. I don't like it, personally.

I taught identical twins named Nyla and Nibela-I think they were Iranian so not a common name here but quite pretty.

I love it nahla and nylah are both on my list, I've obviously got nahla from Halle berry but l think I looked one of the names up on the Internet and one of them means purpose which is putting me off the name a little bit, anyway im really picky but I do love those names !
