Baby Names

Kylie or Kylee

We really like the name, but DH and I disagree on how to spell it. Thoughts? What is the more common way?

    For some reason DH really likes this name, and I don't have any idea why. It doesn't appeal to me at all...but I would spell it Kylie if I had to.

  • I have experience with this name.  My step-daughter is 19 and is named Kylee.  People are always spelling it Kylie.  She and my DH both wished it had been spelled with an ie ending.

    I agree.

    FWIW, Kylie was ranked #57 in the country in 2010, while Kylee was #139.

    Thank you- this exactly what I wouldn't want! 

  • Another vote for Kylie, but then I'm not a big fan of names that end in -lee

  • Kylie.  I know many Kylies, and have never met a Kylee.  The Kylee spelling looks wrong.

    Thank you! I didn't think to check that!

  • I sure hope you don't start to dislike this name because of what others are saying! I think it's a cute name, and it was actually in my top 5 until my best friend named her daughter Kaylee, though I prefer the Kylie spelling. Not exactly sure why, but I feel like it's more appealing. Best of luck! :)

    I have to agree with this. I just can't see this name on an adult. But I definitely prefer Kylie over Kylee in terms of spelling.

    Agree with both these.  It's a very cute name that's hard for me to imagine on a grown woman, but it's popular enough that I guess there will be a lot of women named Kylie/Kylee in 20 years.  Totally NMS but I prefer Kylie.

     ^^ this.

     Where did I read about the "Supreme Court Justice" test... I cant remember. But it goes like this:

    Just add Supreme Court Justice __________ and see how it sounds - good or ridic?
