Leila

Non-PRO English to Arabic Art/Literary Linguistics
I need the Arabic female first name written with FULL/ALL diacritics and its closest transliteration/pronunciation.

So far I've found ليلى, but it's missing the diacritics.

Explanations in English, please, except for Arabic script examples!

Thanks a lot!

Note from asker:
Well, since there is no KASRA, there is no LEE. So I would say LAYLAH or LAYLĀ. But I'm fine with the Arabic script, that seems to be correct. Thanks.
