In the original Japanese it is spelled Kirara. The Japanese R sounds like an L so for less confusion to English speakers In the American dub they changed it to Kilala.

I read in my Japanese language book that its the english L is pronounced as an R in the Japanese language, like for instance Al (FMA) in the subs is called Aru.. So the american dub probably figured that it was pronounced Kilala in english but its really Kirara in Japanese.
