Keyla is a girl's baby name of Hebrew origin, a phonetic variant of Kayla or Keila, from the Hebrew kelah possibly meaning "crown" or "citadel," or alternatively connected to the Arabic kayla meaning "wise."
Keyla has been used primarily within Hispanic communities in the United States, where its crisp sound and easy pronunciation have made it a natural favorite. The K spelling gives it a modern, distinctive feel while retaining the familiar melody of Kayla.
