Myla. I like Mara and Myra too tbh ( I know Myra = Hindley to lots of people though).

Still Zara Grin. I always think Myla sounds a bit made up personally. Zara is a great name you should go for it!

Zara. I like Myla spelled Mila but most people seem to pronounce that mee-la.

Myla. It's lovely and original and reminds me of the beautiful Swahili word for angel (and a glorious song) Malaika. I imagine it's an anglicised form of Mila or Milla (as in Mila Kunis or Milla Jovovich).

Zara is a bit too popular now. I like Myla.

Zara. Myla = sex toys. Mila is lovely though as an alternative?
