Ashleigh?!

DH and I have had so many disagreements over names, Ashleigh is the one name we can to seem to agree on.

However I have some reservations because I know Ashleigh was extremely popular in the 80s/90s (I'm born '88 so went to school with a few myself) so it does seem to be a name of it's time.

Honest opinions please, would it seem odd for a girl to be name Ashleigh in 2017?! Or is it due a comeback :)

Really don't like it for a girl.

Although I prefer the spelling Ashley personally

Nothing odd about it. If you love be it, use it!

I prefer it spelled Ashley, for both genders.

I much prefer Asha or Aisha, though.

I think it's fine. It's a nice name.
