Daisie?

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?

But because Daisy is the accepted spelling for the flower, Daisie looks illiterate.

And I still stand by 'cute' being a negative.

It looks like Dai Sie rather than Day Say. If that makes sense.

There's a massive difference between Daisy/Daisie and Maisy/Maisie/Maisey since a daisy is an actual "thing", a flower, whereas Maisie is just a name (and originally a nickname at that).

I strongly believe Lily, Daisy, Poppy, Holly should be spelled properly because they are actual things, not "just" names.

To be fair though, I know a Hollie & it’s just her name. So people do get used to stuff.
