I don’t like this spelling (it seems like the ugliest choice to me) but it is the most phonetic. Anything else will probably give her problems and as someone who has a name that is not phonetic - it’s really tiring.

When I hear "Lie-La" I picture it as spelled L-Y-L-A in my head so that's the way I would go. Agree with others that Laila would be pronounced as "LAY-La"

Lila if you are in the US. Since you are Indian if there is a traditional Indian of this name that would be okay too.

Absolutely love this name and stick with the GOAT spelling: Lyla.

Garrity in her prime was throwing 101 on the black. Absolute rocket ship.

Larla. The r is non-rhotic.
