So, I heard the name Leela recently. Husband isn't sold on it, do you know of any similar names?

I don't really like Leela. But I like these: Lila, Layla, Leah, Lola.
Or just Leigh :)

My best friend would probably love it if we named a possible future daughter Leigh as that is my friend's name. :) My husband came back with Layla, Lila, Lyla or Laila.
Layla reminds me of that Eric Clapton song. :)

I was really surprised that you're the only other person to mention this. Does no one in this community watch Futurama?! They're missing out...

I thought of Futurama, too.
I also think of Neela from Sly Cooper.

I've seen 'Lia' in one or two books but I'm not really sure how it's supposed to be pronounced.
One or two other 'Lee' sound names:
Leanne
Leighton
Leonie
Lexi
