HelpRe: Fay
in reply to a message by Billina
I honestly love Fay and Faye. I know some people think it's trashy and I totally understand why, but I adore it.

People think it's trashy? I've heard "old lady", but not trashy. Huh.

I've met people who think it's a porn star name or a stripper name, that sort of thing. It's a shame D:

That...weirds me out. I work in a care home, and we've had a couple of Fay/Fayes over the years. They were both in their 80's. :/

Faye used to have a vibe of a chain-smoking, uber-thin, bleach-blond old lady living in a trailer park... at least in my area.
Fay never had the vibe for me.
Plus, I think the trailer park stereotypes are getting weaker and weaker for all names. Besides, I know plenty of fantastic people who live in trailer parks anyway, and they never fit a trashy feel.
