one of my best friends is called Lacey. Unusual name as it is rare but very feminine sounding. She is also very pretty.

It is a good feminine name. So far as I know, it does not have strong ties to a Christian Faith.

1) As far as U.S. culture is concerned, there is no need at all to have an English name. 2) "Lacey" is a nice female name. One thing that's nice is that it's not common, but it's common enough to sound "normal." It doesn't have any religious connections.

I agree, Lacey is a very good female name with no particular religious connotations. There was a famous television show, "Cagney and Lacey," with a dynamic pair of women police with those names. That was quite a few years ago.
