[Opinions] Re: Elle or Kaye?
in reply to a message by Guest
Elle. Kay is bland, and can barely stand on its own. It's fine as a nickname for Katharine, I guess - but why would a Katharine go by Kay when she could be a Kathy or Kit instead? Elle, while flimsy, does at least have some flair, and I know a lovely one. 🕊️❣️🌻💌🌻❣️🕊️masculine list: https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/191050/124079

I wouldn't even expect it to be short for Katharine, I'd think it was either a full name or short for something like Kaylee or Kayla. For instance Kaylee is cute while you're under 30 but after that Kay would age much better. I think Kay is kind of boring but it does sound older than a lot of longer Kay-names.
