Lindsey or Lindsay?
I think Lindsey makes more sense when you pronounce it, but "e" doesn't look good imo. I think Lindsay looks beautiful, but it doesn't make as much sense when you pronounce it. Opinions?

Lindsey for a girl, Lindsay for a boy. I lived in Scotland for years and I've known several male Lindsays (although all at least 30 years old), and it just looks more masculine to me. I think I prefer Lyndsey to Lindsey, though. It just looks softer. And, when I was going through my more 'creative' phase, Lynsey was one of my favourites.

Hmm, I don't really have a preference. Some other ways I've seen it spelled are: Lyndsey, Lyndsay, Lindsi, and Lynsey (if you don't care about the 'd' sound)

This is one of my husband and I's favorite girl names-it's on our list for a daughter. I prefer it spelled Lindsay, although Lindsey is nice too. It is such a pretty sounding name.
The name Lindsay, in all spellings, is painfully popular among my peers (late teens in Scotland). Lindsay is the most popular spelling, then Lindsey, Lyndsay, Lyndsey, Lynsey, Lynsay, Linsey, Linsay, Linzi ... the list goes on and on. My spelling of choice would be Lyndsey.
(With Lindsay and Lindsey, there is no "original spelling", because both forms are found as surnames.)

I prefer Lindsay (being the original spelling), and only for a boy.
I think Lindsay looks more pretty! And everyone knows how to pronounce it, so that's not really a problem...

Lindsay - it just looks better to me.
I only like it for a girl, by the way.

Lindsay. It does look a lot better, I think. The prn. thing doesn't matter to me. I like the name for both genders, but do prefer it on a boy.

No preference. I wouldn't use either but both are fine to me

I'm too lazy to think of a clever signature.

Lindsay, no question
Lindsay's the original spelling, and looks nicer to boot imo.
I prefer the name on a boy, but if it must be on a girl I prefer the spelling Lyndsay. I also like Lyndsay for a boy, but it's only a guilty pleasure liking, and I'd never seriously consider it for a RL son of mine (unlike Lindsay).

Interesting Spelling of Lindsay...
I was watching a movie, and a character in the credits spelled it Lynzee. WDYT?
