My name is Kayla also. My English teacher calls me Kyla all the time. Me or someone else in the class has to correct her and say its Kayla and often some people do the'same thing in English. Even some of them say I should have been named Kyla or Kaylee. I though about naming my child Kaylee, but I don't want my child to have a name close to mine. So it might be Anna or Alexis. But I got plenty of time, I'm 12.

Perhaps if this name wasn't so over used, it might be okay, but It's too short and bland for my liking. Not to mention, despite it being so simple, people manage to pronounce it and spell it terribly. i've been called Kala, Kyla, Kait, and even Kylie. What is so hard about 5 letters❤️ I wasn't even called "Kayla" by my own parents, it was always Kat, Kathryn, Kay, Kakers, etc. i've never felt a connection to this name, and I'll probably change it. "Kay" names are over'sed and this trend should end already. I shouldn't have to refer to myself by my last name in order to make the other Kaylas I'm talking to not feel uncomfortable. I know 4 Kaylas in real life, all of which go by different names: Kelly, Kay, Michelle, and Cat. It's hard to distinguish yourself. It's the equivalent to naming your son John Smith. Had this name not been a fad, maybe it would have grown on me.

I'm 24 and when I was younger, I was the only Kayla in my school. Teache's always pronounced it wrong, even'though I find it to be pretty phonetic! Now I can't go to the mall without hearing some parent yelling out the name to call their young child. I loved my name for It's originality and It's family ties (It's my great grandmother's name), and I still love it now, no matter how freakin' trendy it gets. And I still seriously hate how much people asked if I was named after the Days character! :)

My names Kayla. I love my name. I don't think It'sounds childish. But I guess you have to go by how the name'sounds with your personality. Like, if your a really dark person and your name is Kayla, that might not be a good name for you. Oh well. Everbody's opinion is different. I wasn't named after anyone. But my middle name Christine cam from my great grandma. One of the good things about my name is that a lot of good songs are named after me. You guys should check out Kayla by Party like Summer. The only bad thing about my name is that people call me Caitlin and McKayla a lot. It took almost two months to get the guy who would eventually be my boyfriend to quit calling me McKayla. And he liked me! You'd think he's pay more attention! Anyway, I haven't met many people with my name. 7 or 8 at the most.

i've never had a good experience with a "Kayla", so I don't really like the name. Besides, you will grow out of the name as you get older. Sure, its kinda cutew for a little girl, but not a 23 year old! My name is Andrea, and I love it because of its rarity and its unique pronounciation.

My name is Kaylah, yes with and H and the end. I am 17 years old and used to be the only kaylah or kayla in my entire senior class until 6 months ago when a second Kayla came in, but we're friends. Often'times I get people who spell my names wrong because I tell them It's kayla with an H and the put the H in a random spot like Kahyla or something but at the end they like it and I get complements for having a unique name.

Now, when I tell people who I'm named after,they're surprised to hear that I was named after a girl that died in a fire instead of my grandparents or something. People often get my name confused with Kaylee (many different ways to spell that name) somehow. My name is pronounced like KAY-LAH,with a silent "h" at the end although it is spelled Kayla.

I hate it when people ask me to spell my name...or when'they spell it wronge....like 'kalya'..that doesnt even sound like 'kayla'....or if they forget/dont put the 'y'. Its seems like most peolpe are called 'Kayla'. I was told when I was younge it wasnt popular. One of my friends has known like 4 'kayla's' including me.

My name is Kayla & I was born in 1961. Until the 90's, this was a very unusual name and I never knew anyone with the name. I noticed young girls with the name Kayla in the 90's and thought it unusual that all of a sudden'this name became so popular. Then I was told it was a name of a character on a soap opera! It is an old Hebrew name. i've always been happy with my name, but liked it better when more unusual.

replay
06/06/2023 22:43:32

My mom named me Kayla to try to be unique, but apparently there was a soap opera star named Kayla at the time, so I know a lot of other Kaylas! People usually spell it wrong, but I don't mind it. A lot of people ask if It's Danish, but I don't think so. I was actually named after a woman from the islands, whose name was Kayla, but the name is Greek!

I named my daughter, Kayla Elizabeth, in 2004. I had learned of the name back in 1999 when I worked at the community college. One of the teacher's name was Kayla. She was about 40 years old. I fell in love with it. It was pretty and I had never heard it before. I knew I would name my daughter that whenever I had one. I was 22 years old. The name fits my darling girl perfectly. It is pronounced Kay la. Simple. I think some people with southern accents make It'sound like Kie La. Ugh. When she was born there were 27 other babies born that'same weekend. The nurse asked me about the'soap opera girl. Um, NO! I had never heard the name before and I sure didn't watch the'soap opera. I had no idea what she was talking about. Anyway, there are many Kaylas spelled a gazillion different ways. IMHO, that is too bad. It is a simple lovely name. Funny, I read some of the other comments about the name. Those of you who want to be something different, I understand. In the late 80's and early 90's the most popular names were Ashley and Jennifer. Every woman on base named their children'these names. Finding Kayla was a breath of fresh air.

I remeber this when'time i went to the 4th of July parade with another girl named Kayla and it was horrible...when someone would say "hey kayla" i would think they were talkin to me or she thought they were talkin to her.I know not to go anywhere with her again...LOL

Hey, my name is Kayla and I used to really dislike it but I think that was just because it was my name. I like it better now. i've read that It's really popular but I hardly ever meet another person named Kayla. M mom named my Kayla because it was a gaelic name that'she really liked, and at the time she had never heard it before. To her dI'may (or maybe just amusement; to m dI'may at least), when'the nurse at the hospital asked what my name would be she'said, did you name her after that'soap opera character❤️ I'm glad I don't run into it too often'though. I find It'strange to meet someone with the'same name. I was born in '88, so I guess it was just getting popular.

Well my name is Kaylen'ter'se and I love that my name is not common, I never had to worry about being mixed up with someone else, although there was one other girl in my high school whose name was Cailin. A lot of people tell me that they think it is such a pretty name when'they hear it, but I get tired of othe's who call me Kaitlin, and when I correct them just shrug like it is the'same. So the downside is that having this name has made me hate the names Kaitlin and Kayla...

My name is Kayla and many people do find it hard to pronounce. I always get Ky-la so i always have to correct them with the real way Kay-La. I do find people with the'same way of saying my name but most of the time they are spelt different e.g. Kaila, Kayhla, Kaylah. I love having the name Kayla because it is not a very common name around where i live and i would never change it . From Kayla.W

Kayla is the best name in the world. The nicknames for it are cute, too, like Kay, KayKay, Lala. Sometimes people can't pronounce it, but It's not that hard. It's pronounced the way it looks. I don't personally know anybody with my name, but I know that It's sort of popular.

My name is Kayla, I am seventeen, and I absolutely hate my name. In my school it is the most common name that if you say my name five different people will look at you. That's why I go as Kat or Cassandra instead. Hardly anyone knows my real name execpt a few of my friends from middle school and the teache's. But It's an alright name for some people at some points in time. I'mean, I used to love my name up until I turned twelve.

My name is Kaila, too, prounounced as KAY-la. i've gotten some ridonculous pronounciations: KY-la (once pronounced this way when I won an academic award, boy did I stomp up there...), KEE-la, Kee-LEE-ah, Kuh-ILL-ah, KEE-ala, KYE-ila, and even Kuh-lila once (it was written out as Kalila, for that last one). It's become a game to see if new teache's/substitues, doctors, dentists, and so on will get it right. ;P Every once in a while it gets frustrating, but I love my name's spelling! :) My mom almost named me She'sy Elizabeth, but some prominent figure named their kid that. Then it was going to be Laila, after the'song by Eric Clapton. So I call that my song. XP

My name is Kayla. I was [like most of those who commented] named after Kayla Brady on the daytime drama "Days Of Our Lives". My mom at the time had never heard of anyone else with the name and thought it was pretty. Now, there are tons of people with the name. But I still love it. It is a very easy name to pronounce and spell, yet I have had some problems with it. Spelling errors include: Kalya. Pronunciations: Well, I have had people say it like Caw-Lah. And have also been called Caleb. So strange. Anyways, I like the name but I don't use it as much as my nicknames. I usually just have people call me "Kay". I think It's prettier. P.S. My mother has said that had she heard the name "Michaela" before I was born, that would have been my name. If I ever had to change my name or wanted to, that is also what I would choose.
