Meaning: fairy
For me the name Faye is soft and pretty but also really positive and happy sounding. It is simple but beautiful. It is outside the top 100 in England and Wales, so it is not very common although I don't think it would get raised eyebrows if you were to announce it as your baby's name. It fits in the category of traditional names, such as Elizabeth or Matilda; in the US it was most popular in the 1930's.
I can see this name as a good choice for a middle name. The name May/Mae is hugely popular as a middle at the moment and so this would be a lovely alternative. It still has that -ay ending which goes so well with lots of first names and is a no-fuss one syllable name. It would especially suit a long 3 or 4 syllable first name. I love Verity Faye (uber British!) or Camellia Faye (flowery and pretty).
