My daughter is named Nilah. She loves her name and gets very good response to it. Quite a few people have told me of very elderly Southern ladies with this name. I think it was used around the turn of the century in the South. I found it in a baby book, but most name books and data bases omit it. We know a little girl with the middle name Nyla. Her mom says it is a traditional Inuit name, but I've found nothing to back up that statement.
