  • Colbie Cheese? J/k . . . I've never heard this used as a girl's name. What about Colbie Elaine? Grace? Faith? Anne? Marie? Jane? I guess those are all pretty basic, but they all work.
  • Colby to me is a boy name. If you use it for a girl's name, you should find a super girly middle name. Oh and spell it the right way.

  • I agree with you, in that I think it needs a very feminine mn. 

    I disagree with you, in that I think it should be spelled Colbie for a girl.

    I agree with this entirely.

    What about Colbie Josephine

    or Colbie Elyse?

    It's not my favorite name, but I have seen a lot worse Wink 

  • Changing the spelling of a name does not make a name more or less feminine. A name is a name that is said out loud the exact same way as if you spell it with 4 Es of a Y.  If you gravitate towards a masculine name, own it and spell it correctly. 

    That said, the only Colby I know is a girl, so I do not picture it as a boys name. Also,  I find the majority of names ending with the Y sound more feminine (unless it is a little boys nickname).

    Anyway - her middle name is Elizabeth, which I love as a mn. 

    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.

  • If we were having a girl, we were going to name her Colbie Grace

  • Colbie is one of my favorite names!  It would be our babies name if our last night didn't rhyme!  

     I like:

    Colbie Elizabeth

    Colbie Anastasia

  • I personally love the spelling and it's on our list exactly. We like Colbie Renee

  • I definitely disagree about spelling it "Colby". I do think adding the ie makes it more feminine and I immediately think of Colbie Caillat.

    NMS exactly but I can see the charm. 

    Maybe Colbie Grace? Colbie Elizabeth? Colbie Renee?

  • I know a Colby Jean and I always thought it was very cute.  Either spelling (y or ie) works for me.

    Yes

    I can't help but think of the cheese though when I hear Colbie/Colby. Although I am a fan of the singer Colbie Calliat.

    I think Grace is a great mn.

  • All I think of is cheese and chubby little blond boys when I hear Colby and I don't think changing the spelling will help any. Good luck, the other ladies made some good suggestions, at least.
