Opinions? Middle name would be Olivia - Bailey Olivia Jones... Maybe Baylie, if Bailey is too masculine?

It's common where I am (outskirts of London) I know 4! 3 boys 1 girl x I like it though x

I know of several boys under the age of 8 called Bailey/Bayley. It's too surnamey for my tastes. Olivia is lovely, though. I much prefer Olivia Bailey to Bailey Olivia, and prefer the Bailey spelling to other variants.

Old Bailey will be my first association.

Really dislike Bailey, sorry.

I prefer Olivia as first name.

Bailey reminds me of Bill Bailey and I'm not keen on surnames as first names.

Yeah, if everyone hates it - she would be Olivia Bailey (Baylie)!

Bailey is very 1999 to me. Olivia Bailey is cute.
