Shay vs. Shae vs. Shea

This is one of our top girl names but I'm unsure how to spell it! We are in the USA and according to the 2024 data there were 208 baby girls born named Shay, 200 named Shea and 88 named Shae so no runaway clear "correct" spelling. Middle name will probably be Elizabeth (family name) but we're not 100% set on one yet. Thanks!

Some people don't like the Anglicized Shea spelling because they feel it's more masculine as well as its association to shea butter.

I'm not normally a fan of phonetic spellings but, in this case, I think Shay looks best with Elizabeth.
