For the love of Pete, not Paighton or Peighton. OMG!

Payton (#79) or Peyton (#51)

This! Really? You would spell your child's name Peighton/Paighton?

Yes to Peyton.

Payton = Makes me think about paying a ton for something

Paighton/Peighton = IMHO these spellings are Ick!

Peyton is the only decent spelling, in my opinion. Payton makes me think "pay a ton," like something is really expensive.

Peyton is the only spelling I like. The last two are atrocious.

Actually, I'm looking for the most common spelling. The last two would not have been options for us, but they are listed as options for spelling Payton so I figured I would list them on here.

I couldn't tell between the top two which one was more popular or if they were equal. I would like a name that won't be misspelled all of the time.

In which case, maybe we should go back to Ava.

Ava is ten million times prettier than Payton.

THIS.

Payton is such an ugly sound to me.

I know male Paytons and female Peytons, so I would go Peyton.

I would say Peyton, however there is Peyton Manning (A male NFL player), but there is also Gary Payton (A retired NBA player). But I think its been more popular to spell it with an "E" for a girl, rather than using an "A".
