which is for boys- Lindsay or Lindsey?

[nowwearefour]

pretty sure both can be for both but which is predominantly male one? not thinking of using it btw but need to write a card to a man named this name and i wnat to maximise my chance of picking the right one!

Very pleased you're not using it.

I think it's 'e' for a man. My tactic when I'm not sure is to slur my handwriting a bit, then he'll just read what he wants to see.

Well, I know two female Lindsays and they are both ay, but then 'ey' doesn't look masculine.

I go with the slopey handwriting suggestion!!!!

I have a male friend called Linzi so you could always opt for choice 3. lol.

But yes, Slurred handwriting is alway's a winner.

The male version is "ey"

In Scotland, the male version is Lindsay (my male cousing is also called this)

Lindsay

Squiggly handwriting. Though I would say 'AY' for a man.

I thought Lindsay was male.

so there isnt a consensus on this. the worst thing is i even asked his wife but have since forgotten waht she said. ahhh! i think the scottish thing might just win and i might go with a in a squiggly kind of way. but i did think it was ey so am totally confused!

Blots and blobs are very handy at times like this too.

Lindsay is male in Scotland.

My dad is called Lindsay. Is a scots name for a man. x

My wife to be's name is spelt Lyndsey

I'm sure you have written the card by now but Lindsay is the definitely the male version in Scotland and females seem to use any variety of spellings.

I dunno, I reckon people use both for both

I liked Linden - as in lime trees - but everyone said I would have to spell it Lyndon so I ditched it

I have only ever seen it spelt Lindsay for a male. Dh's mate is this and we are Scottish!

I too have only ever seen it spelt as Lindsay for a man

My sister name was Lindsey but she sometimes used to spell it Lyndsey but never seen it spelt ay for a girl I also have an anti who's is spelt the same way
