Thanks Kellie - it's not as difficult to pronounce as my nieces' names (Aisling and Clionadh) but it could get tiresome having to say it phonetically all the time... I still love it though!

No, it certainly shouldn't present as many problems as your neices' names might! ;) I would think most people wouldn't have a problem pronouncing it correctly at all, especially if you use the "like the word island" analogy, KWIM (it's not like anyone in their right mind would say is-land hehehe)! Definitely a great name! Have to say it again ... I love it! ;)

I voted that I dislike it because of the confusion in pronunciation. I do like Ayla but if I saw Isla I'd pronounce it EES-luh, as in the Spanish pronunciation.
