How would you pronouce Trayce? | 6/12/09 8:19 AM
My husband and I like the name Trace for a boy and I wanted a different spelling for it so I found it with a Y in it, but I am not sure how it would be pronouced by most people. Would you all pronounce it like Trace or Tracy?

Thanks

I would think that would be Trac-ey. What about spelling it Trayc? hmmm.... but that might be tray-k. I don't know but I think it is way cute with the Y! Cute cute!

My initial thought before reading your message was Tracy. But that's the fun thing about being a parent. I guess we can do what we want?

I think that looks more like Tracy then the first spelling.. Maybe you could spell it Traise or Trase.. I like the Trayce, spelling best though.. No matter how you decide to spell it, it is still one heck of a cute name =)

Our 7 year old is named Trace. I have always loved the name and I am so glad i picked it. I think Trayce looks like it would be pronounced the same at Trace. I am not a huge fan of using odd spellings, but I don't think that would be hard for people to pronounce

I like Trayce. I think with the odd spelling that we are doing today, people pretty much sound the names out to get it correct now days! I like it. I love the unique spelling.

I just had a little boy on 9/1/09 and we also liked the name Trace but we wanted it to mean "the third." After considering many different spellings including Trayce, we decided to name him Tres. People often pronounce it incorrectly (like Tess instead of like Trace) but we like it because it is unique.

I would pronouce it "tray-see". Is that correct? It's very creative!

At first glance I thought it was Tracie too. Either way you spell it you most likely are going to have some to pronounce it that way. If you like the spelling of it them it's up to you. My parents spelled my name "wrong" and I did always have problems with people pronouncing it but even if spelled correctly I think they still would have not gotten it right half the time. It was just one of those names. (original spelling is Chastity and was spelled with a d on the end. Most people who don't know me called me Charity, Christy, but mainly I got called Chasty or Chasity)

Our son's name is Elisha (with a long E and long I as in the Bible prophet) Most people like at the doctor's office especially call him Eli Ja instead of sha. But the most annoying thing they continue to make the mistake of calling him is ALICIA. They look at his name and just pronounce it like the girls name. I even put Eli in () which is his nickname and have even had folks to pronounce that like Ellie LOL!

I never saw the name Tracy I saw Trayce and I love the way it is spelled. I can clearly see it isn't Tracy and think you should spellit how you want it. No mater how yo uspell that name I think some people are going to get it confused no matter what.
