As someone who bears the name Page, as a first name while also being a female, I find this name's specific spelling always to be unique. Seeing as I have never personally met someone in my entire life by far with the same spelling, you can tell that this version of it is by far rarely used. Which is quite saddening, but is also a bit expected. So personally if you were ever in a pinch to come up with a unique, and uncommon "name", then this variant would be a perfect fit for you. Whether it's with coming up with a baby name or for a character's name for a personal project, it's a good fit.

Page McConnell is the keyboardist for the band Phish.
I've never been fond of feminine Paige, but after realizing that actor Matt Damon's middle name is Paige (his mother's maiden name), it caused me to consider my feelings on it in masculine form... and I liked it, and I like it even more after discovering the spelling Page. There is something handsome, quaint, rustic, strong, and antiqued about it. I wouldn't use it personally, but I still find it wonderfully appealing and functionable.
Wouldn't Paige be a variant of Page and not the other way around? I mean Page is the original word, not Paige.I like this name but prefer the Paige spelling.

Great name for a boy if spelled Page. The feminine version being Paige.

Can also mean Page as in the first stage of becoming a knight. They go Page, Squire, Knight.
In my family Page has been a male name. I suspect it was a mother's maiden name, at one time, and given to a son, following the English tradition of giving the first son the mother's maiden name as a first name.

The origin of the name "PAGE," according several early PAGE family researchers, including Charles Nash PAGE, author of "PAGE FAMILY HISTORY AND GENEALOGY FROM THE YEAR 1257," published in 1911. The first historical record of the name PAGE was the son of Hugo dePagham, also named Hugo dePagham, who was knighted "Sir Hugo PAGE" in 1257 by King Henry III. It is possible that Sir Hugo PAGE spent some of his early training serving members of royalty as a PAGE.
I prefer this spelling to "Paige." I don't know why, but I find the "I" aggravating. Probably because of the word "page." It feels like it's been spelled wrong, even though it's a name in this context. Anyway, I think this is a very pretty name, possibly because I'm obsessed with books, and you can't very well name your child "Spine," or "Binding," or "Novel," can you?
Umm. Paige sounds exactly like Page so it really doesn't how you spell them, they both SOUND the same. However, Page does bring to mind a single sheet of paper for writing and a youth in attendance on a person of rank or, in medieval times, a youth being trained for knighthood, where as Paige brings to mind a name (but only when seen, not when heard).
