Leah vs. Lydia vs. Lila

La la la la! Talk to me about these L names. I love the way L rolls off the tongue. Please, what do each of these names suggest to you? Do they portray different images to you? Do you think any of them are overly popular or too old fashioned? All thoughts appreciated!! Thank you!

I LOVE Leah!! One of my favourite names! I also love Lilah (spelled this way)! Lydia is a little old-fashioned IMO. And I agree that the letter L is really pretty :)

Love Lydia and Lila. I only like Lila spelled the way you have it. I really don’t like Leah at all. It’s boring and overused imo.

You picked some of the best L names out there. Leah is very nice right now but is definitely climbing to the top of the girl names. Lydia is amazing and ages well. I don’t find it too old fashioned just old and fashionable! Lila is nice as well.

I see Lydia as old fashioned and Leah as too popular. I love Lila.

Although they’re pretty names, I tend to think Leah and Lydia are a little old fashioned, but 2 of my friends picked those very names for their babies, so maybe it’s just me! (i would rate Lydia above Leah)

Eight years ago, I wanted to name my dd Leah, so badly, but dh didn’t share my love for it, now I’m glad he didn’t. It’s become too popular, and while I still think it’s pretty, I am bored with it and tired of hearing it.

Lydia is old fashioned, but old fashioned names are in style, so that’s no problem. I think it’s pretty and not overly popular.

Lila is absolutely gorgeous, love it! It easily gmv.

Leah would be my choice. Other "L" names are Lindsey, Linley, Lorry, Laura.

I think Lydis is a little too old-fashioned, librarian-esque, no offense intended. Maybe because I actually had a librarian named this haha...I would go with Lila because it is different and pretty.
