Reply to: Challenging the origins of Skylar - any ideas? by Liala
I bet many parents were looking for a more "feminine" version of Tyler, or combining the names Tyler and Sky into what they thought was a new name and just stumbled on something that happened to be a Dutch surname as well.

Also, I wouldn't consider Skyla and Skylar the same name. You'd have to have a pretty thick Long Island accent to pronounce them the same way!
