Exactly. “Miley” sounds like a little kid failing to pronounce “smiley” correctly.

Here in Texas, Miley is pronounced “Molly”.

First time I heard that name, it was on my friends dog: MAILE. She explained it was a Hawaiian word for some kind of flower:

Maile (pronounced MY-lay*) Alyxia oliviformis ("chain resembling olive") is a flowering vine in the family Apocynaceae that can be found in native forests of the Hawaiian Islands. Maile grows on a vine with green oval pointed leaves. The leaves have a strong vanilla-like fragrance. Maile grows in cool moist climates with indirect sunlight.
