Lila
I completely agree with Brazen. And Lyla looks very childish. I also don't like Lilah, as I hate unnecessary H's.
@Elizabeth:
Both Leyla and Leila are pronounced LAY-la. Lila is pronounced LIE-la. The princess in Star Wars is Princess Leia, which is pronounced LAY-a

I like lila! The reason why not lyla is becuz people might think of the name Lyla like LIE-LA instead off LEI-Lah:D

I prefer the spelling Lila. I think it looks sweeter. I've also seen it Lilah. It's more straight forward, but I'm not as big of a fan of it.

a. Lila.
I think the 'y' looks out of place and unnecessary. It makes it look silly and juvenile.
c. Lilah is another spelling I like, but it's tied with Lila. Either one doesn't bother me.
I hope I helped!
=)
