With its on trend Z initial and its similarity to Lyla, Myla, and Kaia, Zyla is a zesty, modern choice. Given to around 250 girls in a recent count, its zippy, stylish feel may see it rise in coming years.
 
While Zyla may well be a newly coined name, inspired by the likes of Zaylee, Zayden, Tyla, and Isla, it could also be derived from the Greek name, Xylon, via feminine form Xyla. Xylon has both a nature connection from its tree-inspired meaning, and a spiritual one, as the word xylon is used to refer to the cross in the New Testament. Another possibility is that it is a spin on the Hebrew Zillah, meaning "shadow"
 
Rarely used - if at all - before 2003, it wasn't until 2020 that Zyla really began to rise up the charts. Since then, it has doubled in usage and wouldn't feel out of place in the Top 1000 for 2024.
