Spelling vs. Help

Hi! I really want to name my daughter something, but I’m not for sure how to spell it. It’s pronounced Lay-ah. Not Lee-uh or Lay-la. I hope this makes sense. Thanks -Kate

Leia! There is a Leia in my daughter’s class and it’s gorgeous!! The only other spelling could be Laya.

Leah is how I would spell it. Yes, yes, people are going to tell me, "L-E-AH spells LEE-UH", but I don’t really like that. I have always planned on using Leah and pronouncing it Lay-ah.

Leah is LEE UH. Don’t use that spelling. Leia is the correct spelling. Look up star wars. Luke and Leia. Her name is spelled this way, I believe. GL.

If you spell it Leah she will be called Lee Ah all the time, but it’s your decision.

Leia, like Princess Leia, for sure. Very pretty! Laya looks terrible.

Leia is the correct spelling for the Star Wars character. I just looked it up for you! GL!

Good choice, Leila is very pretty.

Most people will identify "Lay-ah" with the spelling Leia due to Star Wars. :)

Leia is the traditional spelling, I believe. Laya would also work.
