Pronunciation/spelling of the name Nayla

[Hannah]

I really like the name Nayla but I would like it to be spelled either Naaila or Naeela, and be pronounced as “Nuh-EE-luh”. Would this be okay? and would out change the meaning of the name?
Thank you.

You are free to create your own variant of a name, Arabs do that all the time. There is no Arabic name that is pronounced nuh-ee-luh, therefore as long as you tell people that it is a variant of Nayla, you should be fine. Be prepared to have a lot of people try to correct the name though.
