- counting every spelling
The SSA counts spellings, not names. Lylla went to 48 girls in 2025, but Lyla, Lilah and Lila and the rest below are the same name said out loud. Together the 9 spellings went to 7,096, which makes it the 19th most-given girls’ name of the year — 3,230 places above the chart.
and 4 rarer spellings.
About 1 girl in 227 born in 2025 was given one of these spellings — against 1 in 33,485 for Lylla itself.
Spellings are grouped by a fixed rule that folds interchangeable English spellings of one sound (ck/k, ph/f, x/ks, a non-initial y for i) and keeps vowels apart, so Sean and Shawn stay separate names. It errs towards splitting: a family here is never larger than the truth. SSA national data, 2025. Method

Lylla's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Samanatha climbed just as high around 1987, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Samanatha's path sketches the road Lylla is walking now.
