Help[Opinions] Re: Lyla
in reply to a message by michal1223
I think it depends on the surname. The problem is a singsong "la-la" quality with the first syllable. A surname beginning with La- in which the first syllable is unstressed, is probably the only case where I'd be determined to avoid using Lyla.
Like ... Lyla Lamar, Lyla Lagrange.
Lyla Landon, Lyla Lambert ok.
Surnames with additional Ls would be a judgment call. Lyla Lowell - ok; Lyla Lillard - not so great; Lyla Littleton - ok.
