I would go for Faye. It's a lovely name!

Snipples · 09/10/2017 13:25

Faye.

It's a nice name. There's not much to it though. I'd go for Freya instead.

Mama234 · 09/10/2017 13:25

Faye- Beautiful name one of my favourites :)

Faye. I like the name, it's really nice Smile

BeatriceBeaudelaire · 09/10/2017 13:58

Fay

Reminds be of fairies. Faye could be misread as Freya and I just really like the shorter version Grin

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 09/10/2017 14:12

I like Fae or Fai
Out of your choices, though. I d go for Fay.
Yes its a nice soft gentle sweet sounding name, and There's not many little Fays about now

Fay - simple and beautiful! Like May (not Maye)

Faye. Lovely as a middle name too.
Dislike Faith.

treesareblue · 09/10/2017 14:55

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

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.

mondler · 09/10/2017 15:20

I love Faye. Not the keenest on Faith.

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.

ChocolateCrunch · 09/10/2017 15:55

I like Faith more than Fay/Faye.

HolgerDanske · 09/10/2017 15:57

I think Faye is much nicer.

HolgerDanske · 09/10/2017 15:57

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

xqwertyx · 09/10/2017 17:21

Id say Faye, i feel Fay looks unfinished

xqwertyx · 09/10/2017 17:21

Prefer Faye to Faith

twinjocks · 09/10/2017 18:00

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

MollyHuaCha · 09/10/2017 20:26

With an ‘e’.

SuperBeagle · 09/10/2017 20:41

Faye over Fay.

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

Freya over Faye.
