Let's hear it!

I get a pretty good kick out of reading what some responses are to others' names they post. I'm 99% sure we've settled on a name.

Here it is......

Aimee Rae

It's nice enough. Not something I would use, but there's nothing wrong with it.

BethPSU

I like it ok, but I don't care for the spelling. Why not Amy?

Jessa1807

It seems a little plain to me, but it is cute

TheWop

I prefer Amy personally.  It's an ok name.  Something you don't hear much anymore, and it's normal, so it gets a

BattieNattie

Very pretty!

I like Aimee Rae. It's not my style, but I think it's a cute/nice name. Plus, I have all good associations with the name, so that always helps.

I like it, though I prefer the Amy spelling.

Also, Amy Ray is one of the Indigo Girls.  I don't think I'd let that dissuade me from using the name, but wanted to point it out.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, Amy.

After Ruby it was our second pick and if we have another girl down the line that'll be her name.

It's normal, spelled right, recognizable, common but not used much anymore. Also ages very well.

I'm a fan.
I love the Aimee spelling too but Babynames blasted me for that months ago (and it is a legit spelling). I'd probably stick with Amy though just for ease in her lifetime.

That's my name!  Well, the Aimee part. 

Great choice!

Aimee - like, Rae - dislike. 

I would prefer Aimee Renee.  Congrats on picking!

I like it!!  My cousin's name is Aimee, and I think it's a neat way to spell it.  Though, I will say if I didn't have a family member named Aimee I would first think it was a youneek spelling...but that would be out of ignorance, not any fault on the person naming the child!

This. I know SO many Amy's, though. Granted, only one is a kiddo, but still. For that reason, it feels boring to me.

Yep, I agree. Cute name, but kinda dated.

I like it!

I love Aimee!  The Indigo Girls would make me pause, though.

I love this spelling of Aimee!  As long as you pronounce it Amy.  I went to college with an Aimee who insisted we call her Ah-may (eye roll)  It was her quirk, her mother and sister didn't pronounce it that way, just her.

  She may have to correct people on spelling but it is a legit spelling.  DD has a classmate whose name is spelled "Amie" which gets confused with DD's naem "Annie" so I have to side-eye that spelling.

I like it! Aimee is a legit spelling (the French way), so while it may be uncommon in the US, it's not youniq or made-up. 

apc1929

I am an Aimee    I am sooo happy my mother didn't spell it Amy   (and yes Aimee is legit- not made up!)  

jcbs mmy

Great Choice! I have a best friend named Amy but the spelling of her name is Aymie.

cloud9climber

Aimee was on my short list so I love it but not a fan of rae.   I much prefer the French spelling Aimee over Amy.  GL! 

We were thinking of Brooke, Paige and Susannah as mn's.

Agree!!

Another Aimee here.  I dislike having to always correct people on the spelling of my name, but it's a nice name.

FTR, I'm Aimee pronounced Amy.  I agree with you on that french pronunciation mess.  And the accent mark can be a little much too.

Well beings that we were in Europe when she was concieved and I wanted something to represent that in whatever name we chose it happened to be the spelling for this one.

Thanks for the opinions!

I'm an Amy and I think Aimee looks like you needed to sound it out to spell it for the birth certificate. Otherwise though I think it's a fine choice.
