Sorry if this is mean, but I think Paceigh is horrible.

Yes, I'd say that Paceigh is a bit too convoluted. I prefer Pacey. I'm not too keen on either one to be honest, but I think Pacey would be okay as a middle name. The main issue I have with it is that it reminds me of a pacemaker.

---

How about Raleigh or Ainsleigh?

Way too convoluted. I can't stand Pace or Pacey as a name. "We're pacing ourselves." To me it is like naming your kid Stride, Step, or Rate. If you can't find a name that means peace and ends in -eigh can the first name mean peace and the second name end in -eigh or vise-versa? I'm just not finding anything I can like about Paceigh.

Peace names
Frida
Mira
Salome

Mira Leigh or Miraleigh but sounds like merrily

Yenleigh - still looks a bit awkward. Yeneigh

Honestly?

Also I only like Pacey on a boy.

Pacey

I love your unique name style, I really do! You and I are two of very few on here.
However, while I love unique names, I like when names are spelt 'normal'. I think Pacey is such a cute
name for a little girl, but I would spell it like that, Pacey. Not Paceigh

Paceigh just looks like a sloppy mess. No offense. How about Pacifica?

Just changing "peace" to "pace" you lose me. Leigh is fine on its own but it really loses any appeal for me when it is grafted onto the end of another name. So Paceigh is a non-starter for me, sorry.

---

In addition to the excellent suggestions you've already gotten, how about these names that mean "peace:"

---

Mira
Pacifica (could be a fun GP mn)
Pax / Paz
Shalom / Salome ("sah-LO-may") / Salomea ("sahl-uh-MAY-uh")
Jemima (= dove)
Paloma / Columba / Colombine (= dove)

I'm afraid with the "eigh" spelling you want, anything you put together is going to look odd/confusing. For me, Paceigh, looks like either an awkward invention, or something Gaelic which isn't actually pronounced the way it looks. In addition, the name, Pacey, is completely masculine for me in look/sound/vibe.

---

With the meaning you desire, honoring your own middle name, and in consideration of Caemlyn Sparrow Gail, the most absolutely perfect solution to all of this seems to me to be...

---

Firstname Dove Leigh

---

* the dove is a universal symbol of peace, your desired meaning
* a dove is a bird, fitting thematically with Sparrow
* Leigh honors your middle name exactly and fits the double-middle name pattern you've already established

---

I like this name. I've always liked the 'eigh' ending and I use it for names whenever possible.

I must admit that I for one am screaming 'NO!'. I'm really sorry but I don't like it on any level, even as a middle name....

How about................

---

Pascaline at least the ee sound is there without being too obvious

Uh.
Seems like one of those names most of us BtN's screams "NO!" at when seeing in a BA. I don't like it at all, especially because of the -eigh spelling which makes it very trendy imo.

What about Paisey, Pacey or even Paisley? They are all better if you ask me.
