My friend Kristina's little brother's name is Cayce. What do you think? It's very interesting IMO although I like Casey best...

A silly spelling of Casey, imo (though I'm glad to see it on a boy instead of a girl, though the kree8tiv spelling esp. with a Y made me assume at first it was a girl :-/). Also looks like it should be pronounced like the word "case". :(

Yeah, I thought that too, about the "Case" thing.

This is not a newly invented spelling, but as the previous poster pointed out, is a surname in the USA, made famous by the psychic Edgar Cayce. There is also a city called Cayce in South Carolina, a suburb next to Columbia, the capital city. And both the family name and the city in South Carolina are pronounced as "Casey", not as "Case."

There is a very famous psychic named Edgar Cayce. Maybe that's why they chose the spelling?

It's okay. I think it would be better on a girl though. I do much prefer Kacey though.

I really don't like it. I'm not a fan of Casey in any form (it's just nms), but I particularly dislike this one because it looks like it should be pronounced like "case". Plus, I think this spelling looks too feminine to be used for a boy.
