Honestly, I just like Kennedy the best.
But Kenadi is probably my second favorite spelling

I think Kennedy is a great spelling and doesn't need to be changed. Although the meaning could be changed as the name means "ugly head" hahaha

I would caution you on changing the name Kennedy. It will only cause headaches for your daughter in the future as she will be forever having to spell her name over and over again. The other options only look like misspellings and reflect badly on the parents. My advice: Keep the spelling Kennedy. All the best!

I agree. The spelling "Kenadie" could be pronounced as "ken-AY-dee" and not Kennedy. I also hate when people mess with the spellings of names... Like instead of Candice or Candace they spell it Kandace or Kandis... same with the whole Ashley / Ashleigh / Ashlee thing. Keep it Kennedy. It's a nice name. I think it's cute for a girl.

I love the name Kennedy, but like others have said, I think keeping the original spelling is the best. Other spellings make it look more made up. There is nothing wrong with Kennedy.

Sorry girl, but I much prefer Kennedy :( It gets confusing to people when spellings get changed <3 but if you MUST change it, keep it as close to the original as you can :) like Kennedi or Kennedie or something x i agree I'd pronounce Kenadie different, almost like ken-AY-dee

Hope this helps! :)

Of those I'd go with Kennedi because it's the least amount of change, but personally I'd suggest just sticking with Kennedy.

I like the different spellings. Not really much headache for different spellings. My name is probably one of the most common names and its spelled different. -Kaycee

Kennedy could be...

 

Kennedey

Kenedy

Kennady

Kennadee

Kennedee

Kenedee

Kendadee

Kennedie

Kenedie

Kenadie

Kennadie

Kennadi

Kennedi

Kenedi

Kenadi

Kennadi

 

The only Kennedy I have ever met was a two month old when I was volunteering at a day care and she spelled it Kenna-Dee so any way you can think to spell it is a possibility but it may be frequently mispronounced.
