I love Layla, its gorgeous! Laya makes me think of Princess Leia in Star Wars/Trek/whatever it is. Leah is a bit dull and uninspiring.

LOVE Laya, especially spelled Leia. I think it’s the most beautiful out of the 3. I disagree with the previous poster about Leah being dull. I’ve always found Leah to be an extremely beautiful name. Layla is very pretty as well. My fave spelling of Layla is Leila.

Their meanings are

Leah: meadow, delicate, weary

Layla: Egyptian meaning is"night", Arabic and African meaning is "dark beauty" and Swahili meaning is "born at night)

The spelling Leila is a variant of Layla and also is Persian and means "dark haired beauty"

Laya: Ruler, weary, musical rhythm, mighty. Is a variant of Leah so it also shares the same meanings as Leah.
