    IMO if its spelt Bailey then the child would get confused for being a boy iykwim? I think Baylee is a great way to make it more girly.

    I really liked the name Bailey for a boy but seeing as my DD is Kailey that could get a bit weird

    I'm a big fan of traditional names and traditional spellings, but if you choose this name, then choose whatever spelling you like

    I think the spelling Bailey suits a boy and Baylee suits a girl. Just likeAshley is originally.the boys spelling and Ashleigh is the girls. I don't like Baylea...it looks funny. My name is Kirsty-Lea and I do have to.spell it for ppl because they automatically write Kristy-Lee or the pronounce it like 'leah'...however it's my name and I love it. Im all for changing names slightly for a bit more individuality. I'd rather my name have 'ie' instead of the y...and in baby names I have picked out I favour y over the traditional I and e..eg jasmyn and jaymes. So what if you have to spell ur name. Some ppl are daft that they couldn't spell simple names like robert and kylie anyway. Change the spelling hope you like! Its not like you've picked crazy spelling
