Daisie?

[ohbabygirl]

Is it ok to spell it like this instead of with a y? I don't know why but I just prefer it. I don't want to look too "try hard" though. Is it common to be spelt this way too or just weird?

Sorry, it just doesn't look right. I have never seen it spelled that way either, and I've seen quite a lot of names that are usually ending in 'y' in 'ie' (former primary school teacher).

I personally have never seen your spelling and prefer the original Daisy.

I think it looks strange but maybe because I have a Daisy and so it just looks wrong to me.

I've never come across daisy spelled that way but I suppose you could, after all Maisie is an a!most identical name that is more commonly spelled with an -ie.
I think she would have a lifetime of correcting people about the spelling of her name though, which does get very annoying (speaking from experience!)

I don't understand why people have to change the spelling? It looks weird.

No.

Dreadful

No

Dreadful spelt that way, sorry.

Well, no. It’s ridiculous.

Looks like a spelling mistake.

If I was in your shoes, I'd worry that people would think I didn't know how to spell the flower properly and had just got it wrong.

Unfortunately, you’ll just look like you don’t know how to spell it properly, and your DD will spend a lifetime correcting people and institutions. I wouldn’t, if I were you.

Daisy is a flower

Daisies is the plural

Daisie just looks like a bodged plural to me I'm afraid

I have seen it this way before, I haven't completely made it up. I know it's uncommon to be spelt this way but was just curious if other people thought it looked strange. It looks a bit odd to me too but also think it's quite cute. Don't know why I don't like it with a Y

Thanks all, wont be using it. I wouldn't want people frowning upon my child's name, or thinking I can't spell. I have well and truly been put off, probably for the best I blame hormones

It's weird.

I think it's cute too. It's not as pretty with a Y, IMO.

I know a Daisey.
Never really gave it a second thought in all honesty.

Daisy is bad enough (very twee) but Daisie is even worse. And it looks odd.

No. Stick with Daisy if you must.

It looks as if you can’t spell, tbh. Awful.

I know a Daisie. It's stupid.

How about Maisy?

Think you’ve made the right decision @ohbabygirl Daisie doesn’t look right. Plus a daisy is such a lovely flower, I wouldn’t want to take away the names gorgeous meaning

How about

Edith (Eddie)
Ottilie (Ottie)
Clementine (Clemmie)
Margaret (Maggie)
Emmie

If you like an “ie” ending?
