I 100% agree. I’m pregnant with a girl. I’m looking for a name with a similar vibe as Shea— just as you described (familiar and easy/approachable but not overused/common). Any ideas? Anyone? I don’t mean to hijack your post, OP. Maybe it can be helpful to you too?


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

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

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

I went to college with a cool woman named Shani. Just throwing it out there.

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.

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.

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).

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