Help[Opinions] Re: Kayley OR Kaylee?
in reply to a message by )(
I like it, but I'd probably not use it. If I were to use a trendy name it would most likely be Everly. I just change the spelling every couple of weeks. I liked Everly, then Everlee, then Everleigh.
I think it's a friendly, happy, carefree name. Sunsets and sunrises sitting close to the ocean on a bench, bright colors, yellow, orange and pink. A happy person who loves the ocean.
All the versions with a K and a Y give me strong pink vibes, the others more grey-blue and green and yellow, like the sun peaking through. Like a rainy ocean day, but still beautiful. I imagine a Kaylee with a Y and K to be more bubbly and outgoing and a Kailey, for example, to be more quiet but popular and studious.
These are all the spellings I've liked in the past:
Kayley - the first one I liked, made sense to me as it's close to Hayley which was always the standard spelling to me (I like Haley better now, though)
Caley
Kaylee - this is the most popular on in the US
Kaley
Kayleigh - the most popular one in the UK
Kaylie
Kailey
Uhm so if I were to use it, I'd probably present my partner with a few of my now favorite spellings and let him pick :P At the moment I like Kaylee and Kailey best. So out of yours it would be Kaylee.
What I like about Kaylee: is the most popular spelling in the US, so if you are there people are more likely to get it right. Was the first spelling ever that was used in the US as early as the 50s or 60s (check "beyond the top 1000", you need to be logged in). It looks like Kay+Lee and therefore has a proper meaning and etymology, just like Avarose or something would.
Kayley - not a huge fan of this anymore, but it does look nice to me, too.
Kailey - I like the image I get (see above) and also it has "kai" in it which reminds me of the sea and means "sea" in Hawaiian (pronounced differently, though).
Kayleigh - the song so it has some meaning to it.
Caley and Kaley - look clean and less trendy. Caley reminds me of forests.
Kaylie - looks pretty and girly.
