It is kind of pretty, I think I prefer Lierre though.

I like it. I had a moment of "is it LEER-a or lee-AYR-a?" reading it, but that's no worse ambiguity than Kiera.
ETA: I don't know why Liera looks more ambiguous than Fiera. I've never been tempted to pronounce Fiera as FEER-a, but Liera (and Kiera) seem to shift back and forth from one to two syllables as I look at the names.

Hm, I don't like it at all. It feels... Muddled. The i-e syllables in the beginning don't feel good in my mouth. All these liquids and vowels thrown together feels to me like... like water building up at a dam that wasn't meant to hold so much at once. And I don't like the look either, it's hard to tell if it's supposed to be two syllables or three.
Leia, Leah, Lyra, etc. are all much better options.
