How Ayla sounds
With two syllables, Ayla has a balanced, easy rhythm that is simple to say and to call across a room. A vowel ends Ayla, which keeps its final beat soft and sung rather than clipped. For the ear, Ayla is soft, round and flowing, which the scheme counts as a water sound. Ayla is on the way up in U.S. birth records, a name that is gaining ground. U.S. birth records list Ayla overwhelmingly for girls.
The Saju view
Counted by its first sound, Ayla is an earth name, since that sound is made with an open throat and a soft breath. Saju listeners hear earth in Ayla, the element tied to the turn between seasons and to steadiness. Charts with little earth are the ones it answers best. Because earth feeds metal in the cycle of generation, Ayla can also help a chart that is short on metal, though less directly. If earth is already strong in a chart, Ayla ranks lower there, because it piles on more of the same element.

The astrology view
For Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, Ayla reads as a name from their own element; for Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, as a companion. Ayla is a less natural fit for fire and air signs, whose elements differ from its water sound.
