    Tate/Tayte?

    I'm about to make up mock newspaper announcements so that I can see how our names look. Here is what we have chosen (unless we change our minds between now and the birth!)

    Little girl - DARCEY EDEN

    Little boy - TATE OLIVER

    What do you think? Do you think Tate should be spelt Tayte?

    Your opnions are appreciated!

    Great names, I would leave it as Tate, looks a bit girly the other way I think. Weird but that's my thoughts LOL.

    My DH is Tate. I like the spelling. I think the "Y" is a little femanine IMO. You could also try Tait.

    I agree with the others - without the Y.

    Great choice of names Jordie....I have a Darcy and a Nate (and did toy with Tate for his name)

    Yep, another vote for TATE here

    Spelling of Tayte looks a little like could be a girl ... example like Taylor, IYKWIM !!

    I think the spelling of Tait might get Bait teased with it (??) not that is a big issue.

    I would spell it Tate. I think that's very strong and masculine.
    To me anything else is feminine or reminds me of a vulgar term for lady bits (sorry!)
    I LOVE your girls name

    I lthink Tate is cool and when I first saw Tayte I imagined it pronounced Tay-Tee for some reason, so I reckon go with the original spelling!
    Darcey is a great name too.
    YAY!
