Which do you prefer and why? I really like
Layla, not so much
Lila because it looks a bit nicknamey and childish to me, and which in my first language I'm inclined to pronounce Lee-la. However, I like
Layla pronounced like English speakers would pronounce
Lila, and which I think is the actual Arabic pronounciation of
Layla (as well as that of the Hebrew word for "night").
