    I'm American and generally spell the color as "gray", unless I'm chatting online with Brits then I'll say "grey". But in America, "Grey" is generally a person's name.

    I always assumed if it were a last name it was Gray and the color was Grey but apparently it goes both ways.

    It seems to be a regional thing. I spell it either way, depending on my mood.:)

    I never know how to spell it. I usually spell it whichever way I feel like. I always confused about which is American English and which is English English.
