Re: Leigh vs Lee
in reply to a message by LMS
I've never heard Leigh pronounced as anything but Lee, and I really hope I never do. Lay? Really? As a name?What I find more interesting is the gender divide. I expect Leigh to be a girl and Lee to be more likely to be a boy, but not always. I've heard that in some places this is reversed, with boy Leigh and girl Lee being standard. Does anyone know?

I’ve heard it pronounced “lay” in Leighann, Leighla, Leighton, Kayleigh, Hadleigh, etc. It’s certainly not unheard of, even if it may be incorrect.
