Jaycee or Jaci?

trkristinek · July 2013

I think we've finally decided on a girl name. Now can't decide how to spell it! My name is Traci. My daughter is Kylee. And my sister is Baylee. That being said, is an ending of "i" or "ee" a better fit? Jaycee Lynn or Jaci Lynn?

I have a cousin on my husband's side who has a daughter and they wrote it Jaycee. I think it would be cute being that her sister has the double ee, a cute sibset spelling!

I vote for the correct spelling...Jaci.

Although it's really a nickname for Jacqueline, which I like a million times better.

Empireceo · July 2013

I agree that Jaycee/Jaci seems more like a nickname.

StickyBaby · July 2013

My vote is Jacquelyn, let your lo have her own name that doesn't sound like every other name in your family.

Welcome to the bump, btw.

Neither.

I think Jaycee looks better. Plus it's cute that your other daughter ends in ee. I think it's a cute name!

chpswife · July 2013

I vote Jaci

I don't really like the spelling Jaycee... but I guess I'll say I could see how you would and others would like it best because it "matches" Kylee, with the "ee" ending.

I grew up with a Jacey. So if I hear that name for a girl, that's the spelling I envision.

I would not pronounce Jaci and Jaycee the same way. Jaci looks like Jackie to me.

This! To me Jaci is pronounced "Jack-y". I like Jaycee. As some others have said I do think it is a little nick-namey, but I still think it would be respectable on a grown woman applying for a job.

Yes, I know a girl named just Jaci & I absolutely hate it & soon found to hate her as she always acted like a 6 year old.

Is there really a right way to spell a fake name?

braveangel2 · July 2013

I actually pronounce these different.

Jaycee sounds like Jay Cee with the emphasis on the first syllable.

Jaci sounds like Traci with the emphasis on the second syllable.

Which are you going for?

Neither.

Agree. Neither is a name I can see on an adult. Both spellings look cutesy.

Yes! And autocorrect kept trying to change it to Jack.

braveangel2 · July 2013

Jaycee was also the name of the 11yearold that was kidnapped and kept for years before being rescued.

braveangel2 · July 2013

Since this name came from the initials, J.C. What about giving her a J first and a C middle, then calling her JC although now that I think about it, it sounds like you're calling her Jesus Christ. Or Jacey which seems to be a more familiar spelling, and it might help avoid pronunciation confusion.

I have a friend who spells it Jayci.
