I like both, but I prefer Joy because it's not as overused as Grace is at the moment.

Without a doubt, my vote goes to Grace. I really like it as a FN & MN. I don't like Joy at all.

Both are really pretty, but I think Joy is less common.Jamy })i({

As long as it isn't paired with Emily or Emma in any form, I choose Grace. I like the nn Gracie even better than Grace.
Ever since last year I have heard of too many Emma Graces and Hannah Joys so as long as it is not a combo of either of those..I choose Grace.

I know sister's whose names are Grace and Joy. I prefer the sound of Grace but it's really popular. Joy is a kind've a breathe of fresh air. but I would choose Grace.- ♥ -

Joy, if I had to pick. Neither really, but at least Joy isn't so overdone.

Love both, but Joy's more unusual imo.

Joy's much more interesting at this point.

Joy, definitely!I prefer Joy. It's so much rarer. I love a name that means happy. I even thought about Felicity for my first daughter 'til some bright spark said it reminded them of felatio. I took those comments on board. Anyway, I love Joy. it's my DD's middle name. Grace is lovely too, but so overused at the moment that it just washes over me now without leaving an impression. I might like it again in 30 years though!

Grace, absolutely, one of my all-time favourites. Joy belongs on a sixty-year old...~Lully Lulla~

Oh, that's very tough. I love both names, but I'm going with Joy because it's less popular."A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession."- Albert Camus
