Hayley

I like it, it's my daughter's name. I've known a few.
I find it dated to the 80s and 90s big time. It's very common where I live.
The spelling Haley looks neatest to me, probably because it's the original surname spelling.

It's ok. Not a fave, but likable. Either Hailey or Hayley works for me. The 2 Ys thing kinda bugs me a bit, but not too bad... prob'ly the reason my pref. is Hailey even though Hayley is ok. I've only met a few of them, but have heard it's become quite common in recent years, so it feels a tad on the trendy side (though I prefer it to some other trendy names)... I'd assume the spelling needed to be asked about since there are so many different ones. My 2nd cousin once removed named his daughter Hailleigh. Not thinking I'd spell it that way. The only other sp. I'd be tempted to use would be Heili, but that would only be for the purpose of putting kanji with it. (for peace and village) My main combo for this one is Hailey Azusa.
I like Hayley, and this spelling only too. I think it's pretty dated. I knew a couple growing up, but most would be a little older than me, so I see it more 80s than 90s, at least where I am. Using Hayley in 2012 wouldn't sound fresh and revived, but more kind of... a little off. I look forward to a Hayley comeback!
Hayley is my favourite and most intuitive spelling.

it's cute
I probably wouldn't use it because it's not Italian-sounding enough. But I'd probably spell it Hailey.

That just made me think about how you could 'Italianise' Hayley... I can't decide whether I love or hate the thought of Hailia :D
