Gray-haired or the color gray
Grae is a modern spelling variant of the English surname and color name Gray or Grey. Historically used to describe someone with gray hair or clothing, it has evolved into a sleek, minimalist choice for parents seeking a gender-neutral name. The 'ae' spelling adds a contemporary, slightly whimsical flair to the traditional color name.
