How would you pronounce this ?? ..

[Loula]

A-la is soo much nicer and unique x

I immediately thought it would be pronounced A la...as in the letter 'A' with 'la' on the end. I didn't think Eye la as I'd assume that would be spelled Isla. Very pretty!

Ay-la! I like mia though xxx

I would probably pronounce it like Isla is pronounced, but that might be because Isla is one of our girls names, so it's the first thing I hthought of x

I would pronounce it as A-La, just because I would assume you would spell Eye-La as Isla! But I love the name xx

One thing I would say is this. Don't give your child a name that can be pronounced multiple ways of its going to annoy when people get it wrong. The only reason I say this is that I work in a children's hospital and I can't tell you how many parents get annoyed when we shout the child's name out incorrectly. We tend to say it as its spelt a lot of the time and most of the time it's right but so many names now we aren't sure. I always wonder why they give their children exotic spellings (mostly of traditional names) and then get annoyed at us when we get it wrong!! x

If I was to think of how to spell the name A-la I would spell it Aela. The spelling Ayla or Aila could be mispronounced too easily IMO xx
