Micky or Mickey

[jellytots18]

Which looks right to you?

For a human or a mouse?

Mike, Michael and Mick.

Mickey

Is it pronounced Mickey like the mouse or Mike-y like a nn for Michael?

Neither.

Are you taking the mickey?

He's not going to thank you when he's a grown man with a name like that.

🤣

’Yes, I would absolutely call my baby a well-known slang term for penis!’

Or no, rethink.

Not usually judgemental about names but can’t stand either. Sounds like a dodgy geezer 😁

Pronounced as in the mouse.

With respect, I am not asking for opinions on the name, only which spelling looks better, sorry if I didn't make that clear :) xx

I prefer Michael with Mikey as the nickname.

Anyone else thinking Hey Mickey by Toni Basil?

@FayCarew Well I am now! And probably will for the rest of the day it's such an ear worm.

@AnnaMagnani , I was tempted to post a link to the video.

Micky is fine. Mickey is too mouse.

Michael.
Mickey for nn. Or Mikey.

Neither

Neither. Don't lumber your kid with a bloody awful name.

Use a proper name and keep Micky as a nickname.

On a kid - cute
On a grown up - hideous

Neither.

Mickey even spelt without the e is for ever associated with that mouse. Michael is fine with Micky as a nn

Mickey, if you must.

Although I associate it with the Disney mouse and Brad Pitt’s character in Snatch.

@FayCarew 'Too Mouse' 😂😂

Micky, but nickname only, not as a given name.

Any Michael I know gets Mickey, with an E. Very popular name for over 40s where I am so definitely won’t sound strange on an adult.

I prefer Mickey. Lovely name. I think it suits all age groups!
