What is your opinion on Graicen for a girl? I always though Grayson was a boys name but when I saw it spelled like this, I thought it was definitely feminine and cute.
I've never met a boy named Grayson, but I know a little girl named Gracen. I've always really liked her name. It flows well and it "suits" her. I just don't really like Graicen. Gracen or Gracin would look better. Though Gracin looks like a medicine or diseas name.
I like the sound of it for a girl, but I could not figure out the pronunciation until I read your post. Maybe get rid of the i? Gracen? It still might be mistaken for a hard c.....Why not the original spelling?

Grayson is a boy name... and Graicen is a terrible spelling.
This. It was inevitable that Grayson would become another form of Grace for a girl, but this spelling is out of control. I do know one Gracen. I think it's a stupid name.
Sorry, saying it was stupid was kind of harsh but I don't like it when people A)make boy's names girl's names or B)add an "en" to the end of a normal name and make up their own new name.
In the south I've seen quite a few Gracyn's. I love the name... The little girls I've seen with this name are very girly and prissy... usually with a monogramed outfit and a big bow in her hair-LOL
I think the name is for a more sofisticated bunch... I personally love it. Just because it's not someone elses "style"... doesn't mean you can't name your baby what you want... she is your baby- LOL
I have a 2 year old cousin with this spelling. This is one of those names that I like the sound of the name, but I haven't seen a spelling that I like. They all look like they are trying too hard. idk.
What about Gracelyn. Although if you like the name, that is what ultimately matters, but it seems that Graicen/Gracen/Gracin/Gracyn is pretty unpopular. I think Grace can be overused in my opinion. I LOVE the name and I wish I could name future DD that or use a a MN, but I have 2 nieces (one by marriage) that have Grace as a MN. So I would totally consider Gracyn as an alternative. That's just my 2 cents.
Re: Graicen for a girl?
I don't like that spelling at all. Sorry.
I am a runner, knitter, scientist, DE-IVF veteran, and stage III colon cancer survivor.
agreed
I love the name but like this spelling better:
Gracyn
It's my phantom daughters name.
I like this spelling the best too. A little girl in DD's preschool class had this name and spelling.
Thanks! I really like that spelling
My cousin just named her daughter this - Gracyn Hope. I think it's very pretty.
This.
