Faye. It just looks nicer to me somehow.

I also like Faith, I know 3 under 10 and none of them have religious backgrounds or parents

BakedBeans47 · 09/10/2017 21:33

I like them both. Fay was on my list if I had had a girl (2 x DS here)

Fay - no contest.

Fay

I have a Faye. It suits her perfectly and she’s the only one in her class.

Beautiful name Grin

That is ridiculous in my opinion, you dont have to religious to name a child Faith.

SuperBeagle · 09/10/2017 20:41

Faye over Fay.

Faye over Faith (Faith doesn't work if you're not religious).

Freya over Faye.

MollyHuaCha · 09/10/2017 20:26

With an ‘e’.

I prefer Faye - Fay sounds shorter and a bit snappy to me!!

xqwertyx · 09/10/2017 17:21

Prefer Faye to Faith

xqwertyx · 09/10/2017 17:21

Id say Faye, i feel Fay looks unfinished

HolgerDanske · 09/10/2017 15:57

I would only use Faith if faith meant something to me.

HolgerDanske · 09/10/2017 15:57

I think Faye is much nicer.

ChocolateCrunch · 09/10/2017 15:55

I like Faith more than Fay/Faye.

NC4now · 09/10/2017 15:22

Not keen on Faith but love Fay. I have a friend called Fay so it looks funny with an e to me, but if you like it, use it.

mondler · 09/10/2017 15:20

I love Faye. Not the keenest on Faith.

Fannyfannakerpants · 09/10/2017 15:14

It's on my list although will probably use it as a middle name. I'm going for Fae. Out of your options, I like Faye.

we aren't religious so perhaps Faye is better suited Smile
