Is Pacey a real name? ( I can't seem to find a source outside of Dawson's Creek)

Are you considering it for a boy or girl?

Well, Joshua Jackson was also on Fringe and currently The Affair. Hot as hell now (I thought he was goofy until maybe the last season of Dawson's)

Maybe you could use his Character names from those shows?

I have a male cousin named Tracey. Just saying.

Agree. Don't use it. It's a name meant to be memorable for tv, like Dawson and joey for a girl, but it isn't for real life .

Ha, no. Joey has a boy's name b/c the show creator was gay and wanted to express his homosexuality.

"“Every single character is one of my personalities,” he said, explaining how he, in a way, was every one of the main four characters, and was from “the real Dawson’s Creek.” However he didn’t know how to bring in the element that he grew up as a gay teen. So, before Jack, the only way to do it was to give the two main characters boy names..."

As adorable as Joshua Jackson is, Pacey was the “Jim Belushi” character according to the show runner. Belushi was anything but adorable. Go with Joshua or Jackson if you're set on a tribute.

No.

It is a made up name.

I know a 2 year old girl named Pacey. It always makes me think of Dawson's Creek.

10 year old boy named Pacey on my son's bball team.

My brother used to call paste "pacey." He would eat as much pacey as he could before being seen, and once vomited up a puddle of pacey in kindergarten after eating a whole bottle unseen.

He was super hot on Mighty Ducks and in his Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt cameo.

Pacey sounds like the way a midwife would describe a laboring woman.

Well I have a 7 yr old son named Pacey, so it's most definitely a real name. It is old English and means peace. Fits him perfectly and everyone loves it.

My 2.5yo’s imaginary friend is named Piecy.

I love it. I have three kids, all with gender neutral names and a Pacey would have fit right in.

Joshua Jackson not hot, especially during Dawson’s creek days, okish now.

Pacey is a cute name but definitely sounds made up.
