A LOT of names end in the "Lee" sound, which can be written in lots of different ways (eg Lee, Leigh, Li, Liegh, Lie, Ley, Ly, etc). What are some names ending in the "Lee" sound you don't mind (please indicate the spelling you prefer).

I like these spelled like:
Bailey
Brinley
Haley
Marley
Ashleigh
Kayley
Arlie
Riley/ Reilly

Anjali! I have not heard that name since a few seasons back of America's Next Top Model, and I still love it today. It's gorgeous. :)

[0o-faerie.livejournal.com]

It is, right? =)

I heard it a few weeks ago on CNN and I'm starting to like it more and more.

i really love eisley spelled this way, but it's a surname anyway.

anyway, i like hailey spelled this way or hayley, and i hate ashley spelled any way other than -ley. i'm an ashley and it always used to irritate the hell out of me when people spelled my name wrong on birthday invitations or something because some dumb ass named their kid ashleigh or ashlie or ashlee.

idc if ashleigh is another legit spelling, i'm sure ashley probably existed first and they sound the same, ashleigh is just more complicated.

I don't think anyone's said Natalie yet.

[i-would.livejournal.com]

Only Hadley, really. I tend to think most -lee/leigh/ley/lie names are childish and don't age well.

Brawley is the only one that I would say is a top favourite, but Marley is cute enough.

[ghetto-lonetto.livejournal.com]

How is that pronounced?

[laminy.livejournal.com]

It really is pronounced, I would say, basically how it's spelled: bra-lee.

[ghetto-lonetto.livejournal.com]

Ah. I want to like it, but I think reminds me too much of umbrellas (brolly).

[krosp.livejournal.com]

it reminds me of brawl.. like someone getting into a fight :\
