| Surprised this got to page 2 before someone mentioned the Mets. It’s not bad but that’s what I think of first. |

| I figured the Shay spelling is to try to prevent people from thinking "shea butter" or it's a shortened form of Shayna ("pretty" in Yiddish). Or I assume Shea or Shay is a last-name-turned-first-name (Irish). |

| I know a girl named Shay. I like the name and prefer that spelling because I don't have to think about how it's pronounced. |

Just keep in mind that it's often going to be pronounced as "She-ah" when someone reads it for the first time.
And that your kid is going to have to go through life spelling their first name out. |

| Chipper Jones, who played 3B for the Braves named a son Shea, because Shea Stadium was his favorite to play in. |

| It’s my son’s middle name. It’s a family name for us (last name of Irish origin). |

Why wouldn’t you want a common name? It’s so weird to seek out something obscure. |
