Hailey, derived from the Old English elements hēg (hay) and lēah (wood, clearing, meadow), is our Cool Name of the Week. In 2011, it was ranked the 32nd most popular girl’s name in the US and there is a wealth of spelling options, including Hayley, Haley, and Hayleigh. Though more common for a girl, it can also be used as a boy’s name, an example being former child actor Haley Joel Osment of Forrest Gump and The Sixth Sense fame.
Here are some personalized growth charts, big sister tees, and even a few big brother tshirts inspired by our Cool Name of the Week.
We can’t help but think of Hayley Mills, who played twins trying to get their parents back together in The Parent Trap. Our Double Trouble big sister tees would have been perfect for the mischievous, though well-meaning sisters!
The Woodland Fun and Hoot Hoot personalized growth charts pair well with the origin of the name Hailey, as does the Playful Owls big brother tshirt.
We also read that Hayley could have come from the Norse word haela meaning hero, so the Super big brother tshirt would be perfect!
If you have a Hailey, which of these baby keepsakes would you choose?
