I like this name, and I tend to be optimistic about pronunciation issues...the way I see it, it only takes one or two corrections (and as for people who mispronounce it in passing...well, you can just write off their mistakes. People mispronounce my name all the time but I don't bother to correct them if I know I'll never see them again.)
I do NOT prefer McKayla or Makayla because I agree with you that they look trendy. Michaela is not awkward looking at all in my opinion - I think the spelling is elegant, classy and feminine.
