Skye?

[Wingingthis]

What are your thoughts?

I know.

@87Callista The e on the end is due to it being the name of a Scottish island.

I absolutely love it but it’s pretty popular in Scotland

I like it, but I spend a lot of time in Scotland and we had our honeymoon on Skye. I would (and have) only use a place name for my child if i had a connection to that place.

It is very popular in Scotland and the trouble is people thinking it is Sky - a nature name - not after the place.

There are many other Scottish names I prefer and are less popular. And many other nature names that sound gentler.

I thought it meant Sky too. Hadn't heard of the Scottish place.

If youve watched Outlander, the theme song music is for a song (they’ve changed the words a bit) which refers to going “over the sea to Skye”.

It’s an island off the west coast of Scotland. Really beautiful scenery, mountains, seals, a castle. Worth a visit.

I went by ferry but nowadays there is a bridge. Many tourists visit and sometimes it causes problems during summer months as it’s a very popular destination and the roads are narrow and not many car parking areas. Guess there will be no problems like that this year if we are still in lockdown.

I've always loved the name Skye, it's so pretty and romantic sounding and makes me think of the beautiful island.

Skye always reminds me of neighbours 😳 I also have a young cousin called sky... Its a boy 🤔 so it kinda puts me off

Nice

I think it is ok, but it depends on the surname.

I don't like Skyler.

@87Callista, it's the name of a Scottish island.

I really like it and had it on my girls list but my husband didn't like it x

I love that name and I’m considering it myself but it really doesn’t go with our surname 😔

My daughter is called Skye. I love it
