What does the name Faye mean?
Faye is a variant of Fay, says Behind the Name. Fay comes partly from the English word fay, “fairy”, from the Middle English faie, “magical, enchanted”, and ultimately from the Latin fata, “the Fates”. It appears in Geoffrey of Monmouth’s chronicles in the name Morgan le Fay, and it has been used as a girls’ name since the 19th century.
Faye nicknames and other forms
Faye is about as short as a name gets. Behind the Name lists Fay and Fae as variant spellings.
Some famous Fayes
Faye Dunaway was born Dorothy Faye Dunaway on January 14, 1941. Wikipedia says she began on Broadway and rose to fame playing the outlaw Bonnie Parker in Bonnie and Clyde (1967).

Her other films include The Thomas Crown Affair (1968) and Three Days of the Condor (1975).

Who is it for and how she can use it
Whether Faye is eight or eighty, a 6" x 9" notebook is a comfortable size: big enough to write in properly, slim enough to carry. The 160 lined pages don’t come with a set layout, so she decides what it’s for. Journal, planner, class notes, recipes, travel log or doodle book all work. And with her name on the cover, nobody will mistake it for theirs.
Why personalized works
Personalized gifts show you thought about the person, not just the occasion. A notebook with Faye on the cover is affordable, useful every day and still feels special. It’s also a safe choice when you’re not sure of someone’s style, because everyone needs somewhere to write things down.
