I like Laura, but wouldn't personally use it. Lilah is also gorgeous, but I prefer the spelling Lila.

both very pretty

Laura is a little more boring, and you see it used more frequently. I see it as a name that is "safe". It is not shocking, not odd or unheard of. Yet it is a cute name, pretty and feminine.

---

Lilah is a little less common. It is pretty and feminine although a little more quirky. I really like it, although for some reason it does seem a litte incomplete. I am constantly thinking it should be Delilah instead of just Lilah.

Lilah and Laura would be a cute pair of sisters.

I like Lilah best. I only know one, and she adopted the name for herself. It is defined on other websites as meaning "languishing, lovelorn, seductive; night beauty."

I think Laura has a lovely sound to it, but I have known so many of them. I can't emphasize enough HOW MANY! Unfortunately, they have all shared the same personality traits of being stuck up and mean (please, no offense to any Lauras! I am only thinking of the ones I have known personally).

I do have one friend named Laurel, she goes by Laurie for short, and she is one of the most intelligent, interesting, and kindest people I have ever known. I think it is less common then Laura, so if you really like that "r" sound, you might want to consider that alternative.

I think both are very beautiful names. I like Lilah the most, but Laura's my sister's middle name

I like Laura the best.
