I love this name but am so confused on how to spell it. Is it Macy? Maci? Mayci? Maycie? Maycee? Maycey? Macey? Macie? Everyone seems to have a different preference. Macy is the most common spelling I would assume, but it's not my favourite.

As someone with a name that has at many spelling variations, please go for the simplest one. My parents didn't and it's a PITA.

I only know of Macy Gray so would go with that. What is your favourite?

I like Macie, Maci, and Maycie but am assuming the spelling will need to be clarified no matter which one I choose.
