I think it's fine. The
Leigh spelling is more elegant looking than
Lee. It also makes me think of breathiness (the gh "feels" like it's almost there) and looks more pretentious than
Lee, and it's a little dated, about like
Holly. But it's not bad. I'd even rather
Leigh than
Madison,
Ashley,
Jordan, or
Morgan, names which IMO seem basically nice. It doesn't strike me as traditional or conservative - it's a trendy romantic-ish name picking up a conventional, sophisticated vibe from being short and surnamey and vaguely masculine, like
Brooke.
