Given that Estée Lauder was founded by a business woman of the same name, it’s at least legit. If you’re picking a name from cosmetics companies, I think Feria is much prettier (also a legit name).

Sounds more like a nickname for perhaps Esther or Celeste. I wouldn’t spell it like Estee, perhaps Este.
There are tons of "est" names you could use as a full name.

Estee Lauder’s birth name was actually Esther. Apparently Estee was a nickname that stuck.

Estee comes from the name Esther. This goes for Estee Lauder, as well. I wouldn’t spell it like that, as the other poster said, but it’s alright. Names like Edie and Esme are becoming more common, I can see an Estee fitting in.

Just wikipedia’d Estee Lauder and apparently she was meant to be an Esty but her mother worried it was too obscure and it sounded like Estee when her Hungarian father said it. Her first name was Josephine, middle name Esther.
I say go for an est name and call her Este.
Estella
Estelle
Celestine
Celeste
etc.

It’s an ugly name. How about Maybelline? Uncommon, but pretty.

I like Esther or Estella with the nickname Estee. That would be super cute. Also, I love the name or nickname Essie - nice and vintage.

Estee/Esti/Esty/Estie are all extremely common nicknames for Esther in the religious Jewish world. They’re all pronounced Ess-tee, not -tay. Outside the RJ world I don’t think you’ll have a pronunciation problem. It is a beautiful name.

I only think of beauty products, so I don’t like it, sorry.
