I strongly prefer LEE-lah, however, in an English-speaking culture I would assume the pronunciation is LIE-lah.

Umm... LIH-lah

If I had to choose between the two pronunciations you have, though, I'd probably go with LEE-lah.

I've a family member whose name is Lila. We've always pronounced it "LIE-lah" (long "i" sound). I quite like it ;o)

I've heard it pronounced Ly-lah a lot, but I read it as Lee-lah. I say Lilah and Lyla as Ly-lah.
