Skylar/Skyla
I have no idea where Liala is from, but almost everyone in Australia and New Zealand, and the great majority of speakers in England, would pronounce Skyla and Skylar the same as they have non-rhotic accents just like the "think Long Island" (or Boston) accent you are thinking of. :)

Eek, now I'm being one of those people who assume everyone on the internet is American (North American?) I can see how Skyla would be a perfectly reasonable respelling in a country where no one would enunciate the final r anyway.
