[Opinions] Hay?
I was watching a home improvement type show last night, and the homeowner's name was Hay, spelled as in, "for horses." I thought it was really strange, and hope it was a nickname! I couldn't think of any that it could be short for, except Jesus pronouced the Spanish way, but he didn't look Hispanic.
WDYT of Hay? Have you ever heard of it before?

Probably short for Haywood or Hayden, as others have suggested, but there is an outside chance that it really is Hay and is taken from the English surname Hay, which can be from Old English words meaning either "enclosure" or "high".

Never heard Hay before. I hope it was a nn, maybe an anagram! Hay would be awful to live w/, especially as a child.

No kidding. And it'd be weird saying "Hey, you!" because it could possibly sound like you're shouting for Hey and then another person.My head is spinning...

I think Hay is kind of weird. I would NEVER name my child that. It was probably a nickname for Hayden or Haywood, or maybe he just made it up because he liked it.
