Louis vs. Lewis
Louis pronounced Lou-ee and Lewis pronounces Lou-iss. Which do you prefer? I know Louis can be pronounced either way so I am not sure if I should spell it Louie?

Lewis for Lou-iss, Louis for Lou-ee. Lewis seems less "stuck up"/more modern.

Louis is sweet and fun, but also has a historical feel. Lewis is a tad dated to me.
Louie is fine and less likely to need pronunciation corrections, but just doesn't hold qutie the same appeal to me, like its been dumbed down slightly

I use both pronunciations for Louis. I wouldn't use Louie as the full name spelling. Enough people know Louis as "LOO-ee" that one correction should do the trick.
Lewis always seemed more of a surname to me.
I know it's used as a fn a lot. Just not my preference. Good luck! :0)
