Help[Opinions] Re: Gay
in reply to a message by E.Tracy
No, I'm afraid I personally don't think it is redemable in this day an age. Even as a mn I think it would cause a certain amount of embarassment to a young girl or teenager.
Other options;
Gaelle
Gail
Gael
Gala
Gale
Galia
Galya
Gayla
Gaylee (I knew a woman with this name once)

I like Gail too
Normally I'd say "screw them all -- use if anyway." But... I also think that the name Gay is hunting for trouble. Not only does it now have a very strong meaning, but it is so hackle-raising with so many people. In addition, kids and teenagers still josh and joke about it incessantly. I'd beware.
For alternatives, Gail immediately lept to my mind as well, for a name with a similar sound and feel and no uncomfortable baggage.
There's always your mother's maiden last name or middle name(s) too. :)
