Mylia is a modern feminine given name with several plausible sources. It is often treated as a creative spelling of Myla/Mylah, linked to Slavic Mila (“gracious, dear”) via the root mil-. It can also echo Melia, a Greek name tied to the ash tree and to a nymph in myth, or align with Malia, the Hawaiian form of Maria, connecting it to the debated Hebrew meanings of Mary (commonly “beloved,” sometimes “bitter” or “wished-for child”). This web of influences gives Mylia soft, affectionate resonances without a single fixed etymology.

Usage is contemporary and rare, appearing sporadically in late‑20th and early‑21st‑century English-language records, especially in the United States. Variants and near-forms include Myliah, Mylia, Mylah, Myla, Mila, Melia, and Malia; diminutives may be My, Mia, or Lia. The name’s fluid lineage and simple, lilting syllables suit parents seeking a familiar-yet-unique choice grounded in meanings of dearness, sweetness, or cherishedness.
