Re: Leigh
in reply to a message by Caroline
I think it's fine. The Leigh spelling is more elegant looking than Lee. It also makes me think of breathiness (the gh "feels" like it's almost there) and looks more pretentious than Lee, and it's a little dated, about like Holly. But it's not bad. I'd even rather Leigh than Madison, Ashley, Jordan, or Morgan, names which IMO seem basically nice. It doesn't strike me as traditional or conservative - it's a trendy romantic-ish name picking up a conventional, sophisticated vibe from being short and surnamey and vaguely masculine, like Brooke.
