So my grandmother's name is Rachel, and my mother's name is Leah... Therefore, my mother named me Leah Rachel... talk about having an ironic name because of the Bible story. But I LOVE it all the same! I think Leah is the best name EVER!

I just named my daughter Leah and I also have a son Jacob (who was a twin, i miscarried his twin at 16wks) and so if you know anything about the Bible... well my name is Rebecca!!!! so I not only gave birth to my Son Jacob like Rebecca in the bible but also he was a twin like jacob was in the bible and sadly i named my daughter Leah which was Jacob's wife in the bible... okay, so kinda weird right!
well, my husband James helped pick out both our kids names and we didn't realize the coincidence til after we choose them! We just loved the names Leah and Jacob!! and still do :)

I just love the name Leah, but when i thought of it, i didn't think of the Bible story at all! Another thing, I don't care if it means trickery or weary or cow (which is very odd for me. I'm a stickler about meanings.) My daughter Leah is very sly and cunning so 'trickery' matches almost perfectly.

My name is Leah and i was sitting in my Bible class one day and my teacher told me my name actually meant wild cow, i was really sad and others started to make fun of the meaning until he told me that Leah and Rachel's (from the Bible) father was a farmer and he named his daughters after things that were close to his heart he named them after animals. My Best friend also told me that she did a study on the lineage of Jesus and later on in life jacob preferred leah over Rachel, and even had a special burial for her and not rachel. Leah was a strong woman in the Bible who when her husband was not paying attention to her decided to start paying attention to God rather than him. She earned Jacob's respect and i only hope i can grow to be half the woman she turned out to be.

I love the name Leah, and probably mostly because that is my name.(haha) However I have always loved that there are so many different ways to spell the name... Lea, Liyah, Liya...you could even get real creative and use Leighyah, however I think the simplicity of the name makes it special.

i love the name leah :) my parents named me leah but they desided to make the spelling different by putting an A on the end LEAHA its i think its a fun and cute and not so commin name

My middle name is Liah like Leah but spelled different, i really like it :]

When I was little I didn't really like my name because of its spelling, Lya, because on the first day of school teachers always pronounced it Liar but with a Boston/New York accent so they never pronounced the 'R' but as time went on, I've realized how unique my name is and now I love the spelling! I've never met anyone else with Leah spelled Lya.

Leah is my new name love. I really like Leah Hope and Leah Rose :)

My name is Leah Elizabeth and I'm not sure why I just haven't ever liked it. I can handle my middle name. I didn't know many Leah's until I got grown, but I've noticed that out of the Leah's I've met they seem "plain". I myself included. But everyone else loves my name. I guess I'm just weird. :)

its so funny because my name is leah *spelled* LEIGH which sucks! 6 out of 10 people say my name the right way but to others i'm leigh young! as a kid i always wanted to change the spelling to LIYA! but i grew to love it.
