We have a spelling dilema. Yes, spelling can be a dilema. Our son, Breydan has a nickname that no one in our family can agree how to spell. They all seem weird or ridiculous when written out so I will toss this out to blogland and see what you all think and vote on.Brady
Breydy
Bredy
Breydie
Bradie
None of them seem quite right, but since that is what I call him most of the time, I should figure out a way to spell it.

Just cause I need to be different I would spell it Breyde so like the rest of his name but with an 'e' to make the right sound.
My next choice is Bredy.
miss you shan
I really like Breyde..it suits the way his name is spelled and looks different and strong.
I'm with Breyde. To change the spelling, going from E to A would just be confusing. Go with that, I say.
I like Breyde...as you can tell from my brother's comment above, my family is hard headed and opinionated. They are just gonna spell it any darn way they please. :)
I'm with Rob. Sorry. Brady. Change the spelling - I think it's normal to do that when you shorten names. That way they get pronounced properly.
My g-friend Tricia shortens her name to Trish. Tric is just too silly - she's not a hooker.
Good point, Kell.
No I'm still a traditionalist and I love that we spell our kids names different and that means nicknames too!! caitlyn/Caity/Caters/Caity the tater tot!
Sorry but I still love it my way. Bredye

What about Breydey?
I like Brady or Breydy. The 'ie' seems more feminine to me...
I agree with Trailady 'ie' does look feminine, but I can't give it up and spell like the show??
But I will if that is what you choose!
Love shanie
Get a grip Robert! You have always had a flair for the dramatic. Who is going to say Bred ye??
Take care,
Shana
PS How are you and the family????
Well, my girls are great 4 and 14 months. Adam is struggling with all his work/injury business. (Kris can fill you in) But overall we are pretty happy and I love being a mommy and a wife more than I thought possible! Corny but true. I really miss seeing you guys. We hope to come out this summer but we'll see.
Take care,
Shana
My name is Breyde and I love it. It is pronounced Brady. It confuses some people, but not all.
