I do not like names respelled to end with an i.
Maci, Juli, Kari – no, no, no. Macy, Julie, Carrie – yes, yes, yes.
Nicknames – Ceci for Cecilia - get a pass. And I don’t so much mind Ashlie and Averie, though I think it might be frustrating to introduce yourself as “Ashlie with an ie” for ever and evermore.
Except that I do find myself completely in love with names that conventionally end in i, perhaps because it is rather rare – at least in English. And so this week’s list is all about girls’ names that end with the letter i, stylishly.
