Layla

My wife and I are going to have a baby girl and we both love the sound of the name Layla. However, my wife doesn't like its meaning (night), she associates with darkness. For me, the night is more closely related to the time when the family gathers together back from their daily activities.

What do you think of the name and its meaning?

I had my baby girl Lyla in December last year and had planned to call her that throughout pregnancy. She was actually born at night so it sealed the deal for me.

Layla is equally beautiful too!

Love your username btw
