Shae

The origin and meaning of the name Shae are somewhat uncertain. It is believed to be a variant spelling or shortened form of the Irish name Síofra, which means 'fairy' or 'elf'.

Some sources suggest that Shae may be derived from the Hebrew name Shay, meaning 'gift,' or the Arabic name Shae, meaning 'wanderer.' However, these connections are not definitively established.

Despite the ambiguity surrounding its origins, the name Shae has a soft, melodic sound that many find appealing. It has been rising in popularity in recent years, possibly due to its unique and trendy spelling.

While traditionally considered a feminine name, Shae could potentially be used as a gender-neutral name, given its unclear origins and the increasing acceptance of non-traditional names for both genders.
