HelpRe: wdyt of Lindsay?
in reply to a message by rascaldog
I like it but I don't think I'd ever use it for several reasons, it has been a bit on the popular side for a few years, I like it better as a surname or on a boy like Leslie, and it's a bit of a cheerleader type name like Chelsea or Kimberly, kind of preppy.

I think Lindsay sounds pretty though I've never understood the spelling. Linsey seem the most natural spelling to me, but I suppose the Lindsay (I like Lindsey better) spelling has historical reason.

I like the name in theory - it sounds nice and has a nice meaning, but my association is definitely cheerleader/princess. And it's funny that most Lindsays I've seen from England are anything but cheerleader-y (Lindsay Duncan, the award winning actress comes immediately mind), but not so here in the US.
