Haley, Hailey, Hayley, or Hayleigh?
If you had to choose a spelling, which one would you choose? I've seen a variety of spellings for this name in my lifetime. I think I like the Haley spelling the most, it seems simple. If not, Hailey, the most common. I've met 3 Haley's in my life as compared to 9 Hailey's. This is a very common name for my generation, but I do like it. Which spelling do you most prefer?

Hayley, it's the most common here, don't like Haley or Hailey
Hailey is the spelling I see the most and probably the one I tolerate most, but for some reason I always read it in my mind as "Hail E".
I tend to like the most stripped down, simple versions of names, so Haley is my preference.
Hailey
I prefer Hailey
Actually, my favourite spelling is Haylie, but if I have to choose one of these I'd choose Hailey - it's not as dated as the others and looks well on paper.
Hayley and Haley are okay, but I don't like the look of the first and the latter looks incomplete.
Hayleigh is just too modern... The only -leigh name I like is Leigh. The suffix just looks out of place. :/

Probably Hailey. It just looks the most natural.
Hailey, because it's always struck me as prettier than its sisters.
Hailey would be my preferred. It just looks more aesthetically pleasant. More mature as well. I don't mind Haley or Hayley. Those two variations seemed to of been the most commonly seen spelling, at least through my experience. Hailey, although not rare, would have been almost refreshing. And a definite NO to Hayleigh. No name should be spelled in that God-awful way.
I prefer Hailey
