Lyla or Eloise?

Anonymous
Do you like either of these names? Are the overdone? Other name suggestions out of the top 50ish are welcome! Naming a girl is so difficult!

They're both nice. Prefer Eloise but if you go with the other I'd use the spelling Lila. Something about replacing vowels at random with "y" is very off-putting to me.

Hate both. Eloise is such an ugly name - I don't know why so many people are using it.

Lyla is a boring name. And if you use it, spell it without a Y.

+1 except I wouldn't use Lyla spelled that way.

Eloise. Lyla just sounds like a baby babble or something. Dislike it and Layla. They don't have any substance.

I like Lyla. Eloise is meh.

Like them both. Eloise (of the books) was so endearing!
I think Lila begs for a middle name but that's just me.

I think Eloise is a cute name. It lends itself to adorable nicknames like Ella or Ellie.

Layla/Laila is actually an Arabic name that means night. Sorry your name has no meaning.

I have a Lila - and no regrets with the name choice, haha. We meet a few other Lila’s or Lyla’s here and there from time to time.

Eloise is nice too!

Personally, I like Eloise better! Although Lyla (spelled either way imo) is pretty too. Eloise does make me think of the children's book, but that's not a bad thing.

I’m a Leila, and I’ve always loved my name! No one can pronounce it, but I’ve always said that made me learn how to stand up for myself.

Eloise is so popular. No more Ella’s on this planet please!
