I love this name but am so confused on how to spell it. Is it Macy? Maci? Mayci? Maycie? Maycee? Maycey? Macey? Macie? Everyone seems to have a different preference. Macy is the most common spelling I would assume, but it's not my favourite.

I would pop an E in e.g 'Macie'. Macy reminds me too much of going to McDonalds for a "Mac-y D"

I like Macie, Maci, and Maycie but am assuming the spelling will need to be clarified no matter which one I choose.

I think of those Macie is the most intuitive and it also avoids the Macy's store clash - which personally I think is an issue. What would you think if you met an American Harvey-Nichola?

I think that spelling looks prettiest too.
