I think Shea is lovely on a girl, although I do know a male Shea who is very masculine and pulls the name off beautifully. I prefer Shea to any other spelling - and Shai is pronounced SHY. I do know someone with the middle name Shea - Leah Shea is her name. Pronounced LAY-uh SHAY. I always thought that was really lovely. I don't think it would get mispronounced often, but I could be wrong.

I think it lends itself to a longer middle name, a timeless classic, or a two-syllable unisex/unusual middle name. So, something like Shea Vivienne, Shea Lavinia, Shea Victoria, Shea Jocasta (ambitious, yes), Shea Cornelia, or Shea Penelope would work. You could also have Shea Margaret, Shea Katherine, Shea Sarah, Shea Eleanor, Shea Julia, or Shea Laura. I also think a name like Shea Harper, Shea Alix, Shea Morwen, Shea Autumn, Shea Linnet, or Shea Holly would work nicely.
