My husband and I are TTC and we occasionally talk about baby names...ok, I mostly do. However, he actually gave me two girls names last night that he really likes:

Hailie, Haylie, Haylie---however you would spell it
and
Hilary

I don't know if he has a facination with the Duff sisters, but he really likes Haylie

WDYT about the two and what do you prefer as far as spelling?

I hate the name Hayley in all its forms.

Hilary is nice, though I prefer Hillary, just because I think it looks better.

haha i didnt even think of the duff sisters until you said that.

i like hilary a lot, or hillary, but i dont like the name hailey/however you want to spell it. i just think its another little girls name and wont age well at all.

Both are really bad imho, I'm sorry.

As far as spelling goes I would spell them Hilary and Hailey respectively.

Don't feel bad given your honest opinions! My husband mentioned the name Carl and Trent for a boys as well. I was like "What the heck?". He honestly does not have the best taste in names! Neither are my taste!

I love the name Trent.

I really like Hailey. I've liked it ever since I first heard it. Especially spelled that way. Haley always makes me want to say 'Hal-ee, for some reason.
The only downside is that it doesn't age very well, in my opinion. I always think of a little girl when I hear the name Hailey.

I was trying to think of someone "older" with the name. Does anyone remember Hailey Mills from "The Parent Trap". The one made BEFORE Lindsey Lohan did the remake!

Yeah but she spelled it Hayley.

I like Hailey and Hilary.

I don't normally go for the current popular names but I know a really wonderful little girl named Hailey, so I can't help but love it. She's such a lovable little character.

And Hilary isn't a "yooneeq" spelling, it's the unisex spelling.

I don't really like Hilary, but if he was set on it, I personally would suggest Hilarie, 'cause I think that looks cuter. And I like Haylie spelt best...Haylie. Maybe I like the 'ie' thing or something.

I don't like the name Haley due to people (evil evil children) I've met with the name, but pushing personal reasons aside, I think it's very pretty.

I do not like the name Hillary though- It's too stuffy sounding for a little girl. It'd be okay once she hit 50 though...

I like the spellings Haley and Hilary.

[freezemyazaleas.livejournal.com]

I like both names, but only the spellings Haley, Hayley, and Hillary.

I'm a 25 year old Hailey. I like my name, and in my age group it wasnt very popular, so i've never had to go by Hailey G. A lot of time I spell it out when people are asking for my name to write down for something... otherwise I see a lot of Haley. And to me, it just looks incomplete. But that could be because I'm used to spelling it Hailey. I'm not a huge fan of extra letters or unneccesary Ys. I do like the name Hilary, but prefer it spelled Hillary.

I like Haley

I really like the name Haylie.

Hilary/Hillary, however, I HATE. I've never really liked it much to begin with...and now I'm so sick of seeing/hearing the name because of the elections that I would never use it.

Hailie is my favorite way to spell the first name, but it's so common, I would try something more unique.

Hilary just makes me think of Hillary Clinton, which isn't a good thing IMO.
