I've fallen in love with the name Haylie for a girl...it's not usually my style but I love the sound of it and there are so many different spellings that I like! What do you think? Also, which spelling is your favorite...Haylie, Hailey, Hailee, Hayleigh, etc?

I decided that if I were to ever use it, it would have a double middle name (except for Audriana Hailee) I also wanted to try to see if I could honor my younger sister by using her middle name, Dey (pron. like "Day") but I'm at a loss at the moment lol. Any suggestions/opinions are welcomed! :wub:

Delilah Haylie Saige
Hailee Noa Dawn
Hailee Roxanna Layne

Haylie / Hailey / Hailee / Hayleigh is such a pretty name! My favorite spelling is the one you didn't use hehe, Haley :) Though Haylie is my second favorite, and Hailey my third. I don't care for Hailee and Hayleigh as much. I like the sound and the look of it <3

I feel like Haylie and Day rhyme a tad too much to be together :( You could always mix them and go for Daylie? <3

I really like Delilah Haylie Saige!! Hailee Noah Dawn is lovely, though I'm not a huge fan of Dawn personally. Hailee Roxanna Layne is also cute <3 I've been liking Roxanna and Layne more and more lately <3

I'm a bit bias on the spelling Hayleigh :wub: that's my daughter's name though I prefer the spelling Haylee. DH chose the spelling for our girl. It fits her better than Haylee I think

Thanks Remy! I agree that Haylie and Dey are too matchy...so I'm currently trying to squeeze Dey into another combo lol. I'm thinking more Hailee Noa Saige! WDYT? Too unisex?

Lauren; I totally understand your bias on the spelling! I was actually torn between your spelling and the one I picked for a while before settling on the "Hailee" spelling :P

The different spellings of Haylie are Haley, Hayley, Hailey, Hailee, Hailie, Haleigh, Haylee, Hayleigh. I havent completely decided which spelling I like the most but the current spelling on my list is Hailey.
I'm not much for double middle names but I like Hailee Noa Dawn. I also like Audriana Hailee.

I don't like it, really, for two reasons:

1. It has so many alternative spellings that you'd constantly have to clarify. Your daughter would have to say "Hailee with a double E" or "Hayley with two Ys" - it would just be a pain

2. The spelling thing is exacerbated by similar names like Hadley, Harley, Kayleigh, Hallie etc. The large amount of similar names makes Haylie seem a bit boring - it doesn't stand out from the crowd.

If I had to choose a spelling, I would go for Hailey as I think that is the most common.

I don't think its too unisex at all! I like Hailee Noa Saige a lot! <3 Flows really lovely as well.. I picture a really cute little girl with this name. Random, but true :) A cute little girl in pigtails, maybe a little tomboy hehe <3
