It's an okay name, although I don't like the ll, and prefer Lyra or Lira. My brother's dog is Lira, and it's a cute name. We call her Lulu too...just an idea of an interesting nickname (for a young child...once she get's older, I'd drop the Lulu...)

I like Lyra, but it brings to mind the word "leer", which isn't a very attractive association.

It's very nice, but I prefer Lyra or Lira. :)Claire

The extra L makes it look awkward and messy. Lloyd gives me that feeling feeling, too, along with Aaron, for some reason. I don't care for the name (the leer part of it isn't very appealing), but if I had to choose a spelling, then it would be Lyra.

I don't like the "leer" sound. But I guess it's alright. I would never use it though. :-)

It's a lovely name, but I'd prefer it spelled just Lyra.
Llyra isn't bad, is just that I can't help but think about it with the Catalan pronunciation of the "ll" and, really, it isn't so nice then. Eva

I think it's a beautiful name, although I prefer the spelling Lyra. Llyra isn't bad though.
