Question

What girl name is better, Mya or Shyla, and why?

Answer 1

Mya... it sounds much prettier.

Answer 2

I like Mya better it is a really cute and simple. Shyla is also a good name but in school your child might get teased because when you look at shyla the word shy stands out but shyla is a good original name mya is used a lot but you rarely see shyla used

Answer 3

SHILA  Gender: Feminine

Usage: Indian

Derived from Sanskrit शील (shila) meaning "character, conduct".

SHYLA  Gender: Feminine

Usage: English (Modern)  

Variant of SHEILA (Anglicized form of SÍLE which is the

Irish form of CECILIA the Latinate feminine form of the Roman family name Caecilius, which was derived from Latin caecus "blind".)

MYA  Gender: Feminine

Usage: English (Modern)

Pronounced: MIE-ə    

Variant of MAIA (1) (Meaning unknown. In Greek and Roman mythology she was the eldest of the Pleiades, the group of seven stars in the constellation Taurus, who were the daughters of Atlas and Pleione. Her son by Zeus was Hermes.)

I like the sound of Mya--short & sweet.

I like Shila due to its meaning.

I do not like Shyla. Even though it's not a fabricated name, the "Y" makes it look like one. Besides, I don't especially like the meaning.

Mya! b/c i think that if shyla was shy,she'd have that nickname all throughout skool....lol

Answer 15

i think i like shyla better because i have never heard it before. It sounds like a very pretty name, it also does give me the impression of a quiet little girl, versus Mya which i think is more of an adventerous name... as people say its all in the name, so if you want an outgoing child go with mya or if you want a more reserved child i think Shyla
