it makes a HUGE difference whether your name means "fairy" or whether it's actually the German WORD for "fairy". And no, Fay and Fee aren't pronounced the same in German. Fay is FAY and Fee is more like FEEEH....difficult to explain as that sound doesn't really exist in the English language but you definitely hear the difference. It's quite a bit of a difference, actually. It sounds like the French é in Esmée and Aimée (and no, that doesn't make an AY sound, that's just how English speakers mispronounce it because it comes closest).
