Lyra?

Came across this name tonight, and I really like it...
Thoughts on this name? Pronounced Leer-uh, not lye-ruh.

leer-uh is the italian money.

Ah, you're right- lira.
Boo :(

How about Laila? It's very lovely. :)

Also some other names that you might like

> Nola
> Laia
> Lana
> Lavinia
> Lía (Lia)
> Léana (Leana)

Not sure what you like about Lyra, but I thought these names were close, but wouldn't be money. :)

Good Luck!

Love the name Lyra. Like Lara but less common. I'm having a girl in 10 weeks and this is the only name that really appeals to me. (Only problem is I want to use the middle name Lori after a close aunt but it's a bit of a tongue twister!) I think it goes beautifully with Bella as a middle name.
PS - thankfully Italy now uses the Euro!

I like it said ly-ruh. I Luna is pretty similar.
