As we see demonstrated above, the first syllable is NOT pronounced "gay." It's a gorgeous, charming name, and although it would look far too strange on one of the little blond-haired blue-eyed boys I'm bound to have one day, I love it nonetheless.
I think this is a really awesome and unique name. Kids will find something to pick at, so if you name your kid something plain then they ARE going to be teased regardless. Give them a name that is unique and beautiful like this one. Perhaps we should all look to the meaning of names instead of what people will think.

Sorry, but any name with "gay" for a first syllable is bound to incite a ton of teasing in any American public school.
