Lindsay is my two year old daughter's name so obviously I could see it on a baby. :) I actually know two other Lindsay/Lindseys under three so I don't think it's truly dated. It is my favorite girl name and just makes me think of someone happy and spunky and beautiful-like my baby girl. :) While Lindsay is my favorite spelling (obviously), I also like Lindsey and even Lyndsay and Lyndsey or Lindsie are cute. But Lindsay looks the nicest to me.

Coming from a real life Lindsay, I love my name. I was born in the early 80s though, so its kind of hard for me to imagine a baby Lindsay these days. I still love it though.

But I like it because it's preppy and spunky but not trashy like other names ending with an -ee sound like Brandy or Missy.

---

Also, I only personally know about 4 other Lindsays, so it doesn't feel too common.

---

And the Lindsay Lohan thing doesnt bother me, I've never had anyone say anything about her to me because we share the same name.

Lindsay is such a popular name in Scotland, while that's the most common spelling I've seen I've also come across:
Linzi
Lynsey
Lyndsey
Linsey
Lindsey
Lynsay
Lyndsay

I used to like this name until Lindsay Lohan ruined it.

Lynsey, maybe? I dunno. Either way, it feels very dated.

I prefer the spelling Lindsey, and on a boy.

I love it. I would avoid Lindsey or Lindsei.
