WDYT of Shai? Do you prefer it for a boy or girl?

I'm intrigued by it and while I don't mind it for a boy, I am actually really quite liking it for a girl, maybe as a mn. Elisabeth Shai Honora is a combo I am playing around with. WDYT?

How do you pronounce it? SHY? or SHAY? or some other way?

I like it more for a boy, but when I first read this post, I read Shia (as in Shia Lebeouf) and maybe others would too.

Like the word Shy

And it's completely masculine to me. It's actually the name of two friends of mine's little brother, their names being Lea and Shira. I couldn't see it on a girl ata ll.

Shai introgues me, too, but the combo Elisabeth Shai Honora becomes Elizabeth Sayonara :-/ Elisabeth Shai works well, though.

I didn't think of that!

Thanks for pointing it out :-)

I like it, it's got a great meaning too! I suppose it works on both genders, though it's slightly more feminine-sounding to me.
