  • A rise in rank can be a small change in births, especially far down a list.

3 official registrars have recorded Lejla, between 2000 and 2025, in 14 of those 26 years. Each registrar publishes for its own population on its own methodology, so the positions below are each one country's own ranking and are not comparable with one another.

A claim marked not established does not mean the name lacks a meaning or is not widely used — only that Namewise has not sourced and reviewed that content yet. Absence from a specific year or geography above does not prove zero use there either; official statistics only publish names above a minimum threshold.
