Shae for a girl?

[Samzzz]

I just made a post for Shiloh but my partner has now thrown Shae into the mix. We like gender neutral names but I particularly like Shae for a girl. What are your thoughts? Also would you spell it Shae/Shea/Shay/Shaye?

I'd spell it 'no way' but I'm just in a bitchy mood. Hope this gives you a bump though for a constructive poster to post

I knew a lovely Shae, beautiful on her tho i have other preferences for my DC

Is it pronounced the same as Shay for a boy?

I taught a Che and a Shay, both boys. The only Shae I've heard of is the prostitute who shags Tyrion in Game of Thrones. Shea is a moisturising cream.

Looks like a typo for Shame

After the Game of thrones character? I wouldn't

No to both Shiloh and Shae, I'm afraid.

No.

Sorry, no

Oh dear, why would you do that to your child ?

Were you hoping for a boy ?

you do realise the child has to live with that name for the rest of it's life - tho of course s/he can legally change their name when older by deed pole.

clearly you don't expect your child to do well in life by giving it a stupid name ?

Prostitute in game of thrones? I wouldn't

Horrible, ugly name.

Not nice

Reminds me of che Guevara

But desperate sounding

Also 'she's Shae, isn't she?' 'what did Shae say'

It's more of a sound than an actual name. Is there nothing more defined that you like - Faye or Shane or Sia?

I love it for a boy or a girl.

I met a Shae (girl) when I was travelling - she was so gorgeous and nice I associate the name with her and so I like it. Never met anyone else with it though.

I prefer shiloh,

In ireland Shay is a fella in his 60s or older. I used to know a female Shae though and she was very cool so if you are not in Ireland, it's a yes from me.

I quite like it, but I prefer it as short for another name such as Shayla, Shana, Shannon maybe?

I like it, it’s much better than Shiloh. I think Shae would be the best spelling. A lot of people will initially think of the prostitute from game of thrones as it was such a big show, but that association will go once they get to know your child.

I was at school with a Shae and I’m in my late fifties . I’m not a huge fan but maybe it’s due a revival . The most important thing is that you and your dh like it .

I think it’s awful, the sort of name i’d expect the kids on the Teen Moms programme to use!

^ it's actually an Irish name. There is a whole world and cultures outside of traditional white English names.

It’s a bit chavvy and also a bit beige.

I actually know an 18 year old Shae lol
