Comments for the name Hailey

I named my daughter Hailey. I liked this because I have heard of other Haileys but not this spelling too often.

I love the name Hailey. This is my favorite spelling of it. I know of one Hailey and she is spunky, funny and full of life.

Hailey is an awesome name for a girl, I wish it was my name.

Quite possibly the worst name ever. Mostly because I am constantly correcting people so they won't pronounce my name like this one or like Haley. It's gets tiring after 25 years.

On the O.C., Hailey is Kirsten's sister, played by Amanda Righetti.

This is a wonderful name. There are numerous alternative spellings as well.

I love the name Hailey. Years ago when my husband and I were teenagers we said that if we ever had a liitle girl we would name her Hailey. May 2004 we welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world, yes we named her Hailey.

My name is Hailey and I like it. It's unique but yet common and people don't find it hard to pronounce.

Utterly stupid name, trendy, shallow and dumb. Stripper name.

I never liked this name. No offense but it sounds like a pet's name. And its meaning is rather dumb.

Hailey is a beautiful name for a girl. It is elegant and pretty. And the Hailey's I know are just that; beautiful, spunky, and fun. A lot of the girls names today are so plain, this one still has life.

A beautiful girl's name, I picture a pretty girl with a lot of life.

This is my name. And here are some reflections for people thinking of naming their kids this.

1. Everyone spells it wrong!
2. A lot of people pronounce it badly 'hay UH lee' it sounds kind of phlegmy!
3. I spent years at highschool being greeted with "Hey Hai!"

Don't do it folks!

This is my name, and I pretty much hate it. Everybody spells it wrong. If you're going to name your child Hailey, leave out the "i", because everyone else will when they attempt to spell it.

This name is childish and overused. I don't like the "hay" sound. Why do people like this name so much? You can't go anywhere without running into at least five Haileys.

This name reminds me of a hail storm. Out of all the pretty names out there why name your daughter Hailey? It's so ugly, weird, silly and I find no femininity to it.

My best friend has this name, and so does another close friend. Which is really cool because my name is Bailey, so it's Hailey and Bailey! I think this name is very pretty, but very plain. I've seen "Haley" but that's the name of our current (male) governor, so I personally think that "Haley" is more masculine and I prefer this spelling (Hailey).

I feel like I am in the minority here but I honestly think this is an ugly name. Hayley, Haley, Hailey, any spelling is unappealing to me, though I think Hailey is the worst. I don't like the sound, the long a and long e don't sound good together, in my opinion.

I agree that this name is ugly! It's not really pretty, no good nicknames, sounds like it belongs to a horse rather than a human. Just pointing that out. It's my opinion, that's all.

Hailey IS an ugly name! It's way too common and I think of chickens whenever anyone says it. I can't stand this name!

Hailey's my name. I can't say I really like it. People always misspell it. I've met a handful of other people with my name too. If you want to name your kid Hailey, or a form of it, go with Haley because no one misspells that.

My name is Hailey. Personally I don't care much for it, I don't like the hay part. But I can sort of understand why people would like it and I liked reading all your positive comments about it.
My mom said she picked the spelling Hailey because of hail, as in adore or worship. I always thought that was cool.

I absolutely LOVE this name! I love the way it sounds and looks. I don't like the spellings Haley, Haylie, Hayley, etc., just Hailey. I think it's so pretty!

I really like this name, one of my best friends name as well. She spells it Haileigh. I like the speling Haylee the best but either way I think the name sounds great! If I didn't know her well I would always pronounce the "eigh" as "ay" like hailay.

This is an okay name. WAAAAAAY too popular and overused, though. It isn't good enough to be as common as it is, I think. I like it spelled Haylea.
