I think if it’s something y’all love and agree on then go for it. Where I’m from I’ve always heard of it as a boys name. But most names are gender neutral these days so, go for it :-)
I personally am partial to names with a good meaning (I didn’t look up Hayes) and that helps me decide.
Names are hard but if it feels right then you will know it’s meant to be.
