The original pronunciation for Leila is LY-la. And I guess you could also say LEE-la. I can't think of many cases in which the -ei is pronounced like AY in the English language so my guess was that many would say LEE-la.LEE-la is the original pronunciation of Lila and I heard it's common in Britain.
