[Opinions] Alys
What do you think of Alys? I've seen some comments that mistake it for a "kreatyve" spelling of Alice, but it's actually a very old spelling and I like the medieval vibes that it has.

Regardless of how it's spelled, I don't understand the appeal most people seem to have toward Alice. Although, I like Alys better than Alice.
I'm with you, I like the strange antique inheritance it has. If it was a modern invention it would be nonsensical and annoying, but since it's handed down from the days when "sense" in the language was still being formed, it's sort of lustrous and strange and wonderful.
I adore Alys, love the medieval vibes as well. I like it more than Alice. However I'd still never use it because I know it would get spelled wrong all the time.
I like it. I prefer it to Alice aesthetically.
I love this spelling and actually prefer it to Alice. (I also like the Welsh spelling, Alis.) It's pretty high on my list, actually.
I don't like it at all
I love it. It was on my list for a long time.
I prefer this spelling. I think it looks better.
