I have never heard of the name pronounced like fay-buh.
Phoebe is the correct spelling for the name pronounced fee-bee and if I saw Febe or Phebe I would probably assume you were just going for a unique spelling of that.
To get people to say it like fay-buh the only thing I can think of is to spell it Fayba.

Just name your child Phoebe (Fee-bee = gorgeous name) and spare her a lifetime of headaches.

Fayba?
Faba?
Faber?
Fayber?

I agree with poster one though, just use Phoebe pronounced Fee-bee

Oh my goodness! I totally agree with poster 2. Just call the child Phoebe (fee/bee) which is gorgeous or if you prefer Faye then call her that. Please don’t go for Faybe it’s just weird and going sound like your not intelligent enough to pick a name and spell it correctly!

I would just go with Fay, Faybe is weird.

Phoebe is pronounced fee-bee, so don’t use that.

Biblical spelling is Phebe, in Romans 16.
