Keighley


PN just like Kaylee. Just a diff spelling.

WDYT? I've only seen it spelled this way once, and I rather like it. :)

There's 4 in a two syllable word. It's just too many letters period.

Do you pronounce it "KEE-ly" ?

I can't stand the 'eigh' part myself but I could have a bias being that my name is Taylee and I'm just more accustomed to my spelling.

Kee-ly??

Wouldn't it be pronounced Kee-Lee? I mean, Leigh is pronounced Lee so I'd assume Keigh was Kee.

I would pronounce it KY-lee instead. *shrug*

I don't like Kaylee to begin with, and I wasn't sure how to even pronounce Keighley until you spelled it out for me. So the name fails in two ways, for me.

it looks as if it's supposed to be pronounced Keeley

That's what I said when I read it, lol.

Keighley... that name is also sometimes spelled Kayleigh... how about you combine them to make Keighleigh?

Ha! LOL! I knew one day I would see this spelling.

The reason I find it so funny, is that there's a town near where I live called Keighley.

It's pronounced keef-lee though.

I don't know why but the "gh" is pronounced as an "f", like in "enough".
