Mila is a Slavic name derived from mil, meaning "gracious," "dear," or "pleasant." It is a short form of many longer Slavic names — Milena, Mileva, Bogumila, Ludmila — all built on the same root.
Mila is also used in Spanish as a short form of Milagros (miracles) or Camila.
Mila does not currently appear in the US Social Security Administration's top 1,000 girls' names, so we don't publish a US rank or birth count for it. That says nothing about the name's standing elsewhere in the world — only that it sits outside the ranked US data we rely on.

In Pythagorean numerology the letters of Mila reduce to 8, The Visionary. This is a traditional interpretive system, not a factual claim about the name.
