I love the nickname [name_f]Fae[/name_f], but not as a full name. I don’t like Faedra and it’s too close to a family member’s name anyway.
Thoughts on Faela? Other suggestions for names beginning with [name_f]Fae[/name_f] or [name_f]Fay[/name_f]?
Would the spelling [name_f]Faye[/name_f] help it feel more complete? If not, maybe [name_u]Fable[/name_u] or [name_f]Freya[/name_f]?

[name_u]Fable[/name_u] & [name_f]Freya[/name_f] were good suggestions!
Feyre/Fayre (fay-ruh)
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f] (I prefer the [name_f]Fey[/name_f] spelling for this tho)

Well, my name is [name_f]Faith[/name_f] with the nickname [name_f]Fay[/name_f] 
I also thought of [name_f]Faline[/name_f] and [name_f]Feya[/name_f].

I went looking for longer names with nn [name_f]Fae[/name_f] when I first got into names, but I settled on [name_f]Fae[/name_f] and [name_u]Phaedra[/name_u] haha. I also had [name_f]Theophania[/name_f] (thee-oh-FAY-nee-uh), but that might be too much. Other than that there’s also Feyre (Fey-ruh), [name_f]Phaenna[/name_f] (fay-nuh), and Orphéa (or-FAY-uh). Faela I like in theory, but it does make me think fail.

I never see Feridae anywhere, but I think it would be a lovely full name for [name_f]Fae[/name_f]! Faela could also definitely work! And other posters have come up with many more lovely suggestions!
Good point. I didn’t think of faila, haha. [name_f]My[/name_f] SIL is [name_f]Deidre[/name_f], so definitely don’t want a Faedra/Phaedra.
We specifically like [name_f]Fae[/name_f] as it’s more fantasy like!
I kind of like [name_f]Fae[/name_f] by itself or [name_f]Faye[/name_f]. Also there is “Fallyn”, but it bears a different sound. How about Fae/Faye as a mn?
Faela reminds me a bit too much of failure -sorry
[name_f]Ofelia[/name_f] maybe?
That’s the other option, but then we don’t have a first name either 
Agree now that I see it!
What about Faeya? Not too keen on other suggestions that are too much of a stretch on the sound.

Francesca?
I Faela too but as some pointed out, it could sound like Fail-a. Faera sounds nice. I think I like Faeya (or Faea)!

Faela sounds a little too much like Failure…
What do you think of Faera (Fay-ruh)?

This doesn’t start with [name_f]Fae[/name_f], however I used to work with a girl named Aphaia and she went by Fai (same pronunciation you’re using) and I thought that was beautiful!
