Is this a real name or made up? This is the name your daughter carries for life.

Its real. Theres another form of it Ayla in hebrew.

If you don’t live in Ireland then pronouncing this name will be an issue. Ayla is the best spelling and it’s actually a Hebrew name and not made up. Elyse is too matchy in sound with the first name.

Does anybody have any suggestions for a middle name?

Ayla would be a lot better or Isla. Eylah/Eylagh looks totally fake and made up. Agree you’ll have issues with pronunciation. Also agree Elyse is too matchy. Especially with your spelling.

I think the first name is pretty and distinctive. I agree with others about the middle name, though. Since the first is somewhat unusual, it might be best to set it off with something plain, common and short, preferably without any "l" or "eye" sounds (think "Jane", "Joan", "Beth", "Grace", "May", "Faith"). As long as you keep it monosyllabic, you might get away with something a little more adventurous("Maeve", "Bryn", "Maud", "Gwen")
