I think it's really pretty. Pronounced LAY-lah, it could sound really cute.

Jean in French and Jean in English are two completely different names. Surely you don't prefer the English Jean, which is feminine, on a boy?

I think it sounds nice. I'm not a fan of Jean but I think it works as a middle name.

When was 10-13 I had a best friend named Leila, she was from Pakistan though and it was pronounced (Le-lah), her sisters name was Sarah and it was prounounced (Sah-rah) with a rolling r.

Most people didn't pronounce it right, but I was always good with language so I did quite well.
