I like Hailey despite its trendiness. I prefer the spelling Hailey, but Hayley is nice as well.Vanessa Hailey has a nice flow. I've always thought that Vanessa was a pretty name.

Hailey has the "lee" sound just like Emily.

I like the name, I think it's nice. I guess you could say it's trendy, but here is Australia it's more consistantly popular, rather than really trendy for a certain period of time. Hayley is my prefered spelling. Vanessa Hailey works nicely.

Hailey is OK. The best spelling is Haylie. Vanessa Hailey flows OK.

It does sound very trendy. I also don't like it because it's one of those names that are two extremely pretty and extremely substantless syllables put together. I like Hayley the best as a spelling though, but Hailey is close. Haylie is the worst.Neither Vanessa or Hailey is very appealing to me, but I guess there's nothing wrong with it.

Haley, and all of its spellings (way too many to count), happens to strike me as very cutesy-trendy-1990s. Doesn't age well, imo, and has been outdated for at least 10 years.

I like Hayley best, then Hailey, Haley, Haylie.Vanessa Hailey is OK. It may seem trendy now but when Vanessa Hailey would be 80 there would be a bajillion other Hailey's out there too.

I actually like Hailey even though it is very popular (at least where I live.) I prefer the spelling Haley. Vanessa Hailey sounds very nice! I'm starting to like the name Vanessa a lot.

I don't care for surnames as fns, and this one is an especially common one. Also, it sounds flimsy and cutesy; not a name for an adult woman.I prefer Hilary, Hermione or Holly. Vanessa Holly?

That's true. It does sound a bit childish. I also love the name Hilary. And Vanessa Holly is a lovely combination! Thank you!

I like it a lot. It is trendy, but it's been trendy for quite some years now, which makes it less trendy than say, Jayden or Nevaeh. I'd just spell it Hailey but the other spellings you listed are fine. Vanessa Hailey is neat, Vanessa is kind of an exotic, classy name and Hailey more ordinary, which balances the combo out nicely.

That’s what I like! The simplicity of Hailey seems to balance Vanessa out well! Thanks.

Hailey (with this spelling) is listed as 25th on the Social Security list for babies born in 2006, so it is popular. I like it too, but spelled Haley.The combination is nice, but I personally have negative issues with the name Vanessa.:)Danielle
