My baby'son is named Shaye as we loved the name and thought it was different to the norm - everyone we meet loves his unusual name too! He wouldnt suit anything else and certainly was "A Gift" given'to us!

My name is Shaye and having to spell it ALWAYS is a real pain. Also, people call me Sherry, Shane, etc. I also get asked if it is short for something. It's neither feminine or masculine as well. I do like my name but it has its drawbacks.

i've named my first son Shay, and I think It's a great name. Shay is of Celtic origin and means "Gift". I think the'spelling is actually an American-isation of the'shorten form of Seamus. It is also somethimes used as a shorten form of Shymal which is a Indian/Hindi origin name.
