Miley/Maile???

[shishenbelle.livejournal.com]

So randomly over the last few days i keep hearing the name Miley - i read it in a book, met a girl with the name, and of course there is Miley Cyrus -

I'm not planning on having kids anytime soon, so chances are by the time i have kids this will be in the "super insanely trendy" category - but regardless - how would you spell it? And what are your feelings on the name...

Spellings: Keep in mind i would prounounce it My-Leigh

Miley
Maile
Myleigh
Mylee

I figure cause of the proununciation i would go with Miley, but the girl i met spelled it Maile, which is pretty but to me would be said Mail (like post) lee

My daughter's name is Maylie (not mylee but close), and we haven't come across another one yet. A lot of people initially hear "Bailey" first though. I actually got her name from some name list but it was spelled Meili, which I think looked beautiful but no one would ever be able to spell it so I tried to spell it more phonetically without looking pretentious (I don't like Mayli or Maylee or Mayleigh)
