Fay meaning

lovely name. it is perfect. yes, it is graceful and mystic.

It is my surname however i gave the name to my daughter as her middle name and she has given it to her daughter as her middle name. We are doing our part to keep the name alive.

My great grandfather's name was Fay and i was almost named after him...thank god i was named after my great grandmother

I'm watching Perry Mason and notice that the judge in some episodes is a man named Fay Roope, which got me curious about the history of Fay as a man's name. i've never heard of any man with this name besides this.

MY NAME IS 'FAY!' NAMED AFTER MY PATERNAL GRANDMOTHER 'FEDE' WHICH IS FAY IN ITALIAN. I HAVE ONLY MET ONE PERSON IN MY LIFE NAMED FAY! (WITH NO E) AND YES, I THINK It's A MYSTICAL & SPIRITUAL NAME. THANK YOU MOM & DAD!

People always want to spell it Faye. Trying to get them to leave off the "e" is very difficult.

Fay Vincent was commissioner of baseball in 2001 so yes there are men named Fay most before 1940 if you look at the chart. He was born in 1938.

I have never heard of a boy or man named Fay. Only women. I'd have to know someone famous by that name to get used to it as a man's name.

My dad's name was Fay-born in 1918. He was a very savvy business owner. We named our youngest son Fay Joseph, after his grandfathe's. He was born in 1988-a bicentennial baby. He is very intelligent. He makes beautiful cabinetry and is a hard worker. He also had many girls that liked the way he looked. But, he was a very selective young man and waited until he found a lady that he felt he had much in common with, including faith in Jesus. Fay is an old name and having a French history meaning faith, it is an appropriate name for him.

My Grandfather was Fay Henry born in 1913, I now have a great nephew that has Fay for his middle name. My grandfather was only called Fay by his mother and I addressed my letters to him with his given name, but he was known as Hank. I am happy to have another Fay in my family line, rhymes with day, Fay with long A sound

This name is atrocious. It reminds the world how uneducated Americans really are.

We like Lila for our daughter. We live in Spain and whereas we will pronounce it Lila as in lilac, most people here will say Lila the'spanish way to rhyme with 'wheeler'. It doesn't matter at all to us - we already have one daughter, Iris, and that is pronounced differently here too. We kind of like that the girls will have two ways to say their names!

My name is Fay and I don't hear the name very often. But when I do, It's usually spelt with an 'e'. I think It's a really pretty name because it means 'fairy'!!

My partner's name is Kenneth Fay Bowers. For his entire life, he was so self-conscious about the middle name Fay that he went to great len'ths to keep anyone from knowing his middle name. He filled-out forms and signed documents simply as Ken Bowers, while omitting his middle name "Fay" entirely. He had successfully hid his full name from everyone over the years until just recently when'the DMV discovered his full name via Birth Certificate and included it on his latest Driver's License / Passport / State ID Card. He was not too happy about that. Ken Fay sounds a bit peculiar, so when I want to get his attention, I call him Kenny Fay. Either way, he does not care for the name Fay at all and would rather not acknowledge that fact or have it disclosed in his behalf.

My name is Spelled F-A-Y-E pronounced the'same way as Fay. Fay seems to me like its missing something. It'seems so short and unfinished. I love my name, I am 22, and yes the older generations love that name. Its an older name but I think it has a lot of something special. Character. The names nowadays are so plain, jennifer, and amanda, It'seems that we need more names like mine and othe's like it. I have met several people with my name, some older and a couple my age. but not in between. weird huh. I was always a bright and cheerful child and loved to make friends. So the name definately has a good follwing in my opinion, I am also Irish and German. but I am not sure if it had to do with me getting my name.

Good question!I ralley don't know why I love names as much as I do, but they inter'st me so much. Y!A has helped me pick out names for my children actually, and I think It's pretty cool if I can help othe's. I'm also trying to work on not being so opinionated in my answers lol. Not everyone has the'same opinion or taste in names that I do. Was this answer helpful❤️

I called my daughter Fay - she is 13months, bright, socialable and always smiling. We had plenty of people commenting on her nice name. I am German, my girlfriend French and our daughter Irish (born in ireland), we need a name which can easily pronounced in French/English/Gaelic and German - Fay it was. We are very happy.

My name is consistently spell with an e at the end. I am often called Faith and sometimes Fran.

It is a unique name and it is really inter'sting to say.

ok my initials spell fae and my nickname is Fay-Fay and i never hear any boys called fay

My late uncle was named Edwin Fay and I was named Linda Faye in his honor. I'm proud of that fact although he died when I was a toddler. I really don't care for the name otherwise.

LOVE IT- What a great old fashioned name to bring back into a world of Jades, Jaydas, Aidens & Austins!

I'm a male named Fay, born in the 1930s. i've met about 40 othe's in my life. Mostly older. There was a period when Lafayette was a very "patriotic" name and both "Fay" and "Lafe" were short derivitives. Just met a young woman clerk yesterday who said her Grandfather was named Fay. I wouldn't name a guy child Fay today. Fay Vincent didn't get famous enough and Fay Jones was a unique architect. It embarasses people who see the name and just 'expect' the person they see will be a woman. When young, there were guys named Fran (Tarkinton), Shirley, Kay, etc. Today "Jan's" have the'same problem.

My name is Fay. My best friend's sister is also called this. We often find that everybody spells it F-a-y-e, but i have often had comments from old people at work that It's a 'lovely name'

My female cousin was named Fay. For a male if there was masculine name in front. I know some culture's name their son after both parents but it is the mothe's maiden name

My oldest brother was named Fay. He was born in 1938 in Louisiana. I have never heard of another man named Fay, however my mother'said she found the name in a U. S. Marines yearbook and liked it. My brother did not like It'so much I think. His middle name was Allen and we usually called him Fay Allen. As a grown man his friends called him Al.

My name is faye!! its a very old name not many people i know are called it.

My grandfather and father and brother all had the first name Fay and I think it is a name with wonderful meanings like Raven in Gaelic and faith in old french and magical or fairy or seer in English. It is an old name and I wish I knew more males named Fay

My great grandfather had the middle name of Fay and a few other male relatives as well. I have been wondering at It's origin for a male.
