I was just facebook stalking and suddenly remembered this

The girls in my high school, when we were probably about sophomores, took it upon themselves to change their own names to kre8ive spelling. The two that I remember are Laci changing her name to Layc, and Kelly changing her name to Kelè.
Now here it is 8 years later and they are still using those spellings.
WDYT? Would you ever use ~Layc~ or ~Kelè~ ?

I can see Layc being pronounced Laci (although I want to pronounce it like Lake.) Kele (with the accent) would NOT be pronounced like Kelly. Ever.

I have a creatively spelled nickname (Jewelz as compared to Giuls or Jules) but I think you can be a lot more lenient with nicknames.
