[Opinions] Shayla
What are your opinions on the name Shayla? I think it's pretty and not too childish. Plus it isn't just another Kayla (still, a nice name! I just can't use it, sadly)."You're a firework. Show your obstacles your brightest colors."-MeRate my name lists too!

It's okay. I find it a bit dated and trendy sounding.It was never popular but fits in with names popular in the 70s-90s: Kayla, Shannon, Kendra, Hayley, Kaylee.It also looks trendy.I prefer just Shea (pr. SHAY) because it looks more elegant.

I like it and I have no idea why.

I kind of like it. There's something.... country-glamorous about it.

I really like how it sounds!I don't love how it looks. I'd rather see Shaila. The AY bugs my eyes.
Or, wouldn't it be cool if Sheila was correctly always pronounced as Shayla? So nobody thought it was a made up trendy -ayla name?
But anyway it's a nice lilting name and makes me sorta happy.

I like Shayla. It's pretty and easy to pronounce/spell without being too common.

I’m not a fan. But I don’t like Kayla either. I think Shana (pronounced Shay-na) is much nicer.

Oh Shana is nice! I LOVE Shayna, wow. What a surprise.
