I'm still in the "but it's booorrrring" camp. Sorry :) I do like
Ainsley though, sort of. I think
Ashley is better than
Hadley but both are a bit preppy for me.
I do like the ash tree thing though. I like Ashen as a GP (not sure if I prefer it for a boy or a girl) and I've recently fallen in love with
Asha for a girl.
I know a lot of Ashleys, as well as at least one
Ashlee. Most of the Ashleys I know are teenagers. I know a few teenage Jessicas too- late teens/early 20's, as well as my cousin who is in her 30's named
Jessica.
Best to worst:
Ainsley,
Ashley,
HadleyAshley is more common that
Lindsay, I think.
I like the sound of both of these. I like
Ashley better then
Lindsay, but I like
Lindsey a little better than
Ashley.
I'd say
Ashley is most common, then
Lindsey, then
Hadley, and then
Ainsley. (I've never met an
Ainsley, but I think there was one who went to ny high school that I occasionally heard people talking about).
