Carly Shay

Carly Shay (born Carlotta Taylor Shay on January 15, 1994) is the younger sister of Spencer Shay and the daughter of Mr. Shay and Mrs. Shay.She moved to the northside of Seattle when she was one month old on 2-14-1994. She lived with Spencer ever since he graduated from Ridgeway High School in June 2000.

Characteristics
Carly is a kind, caring person who would do anything for her friends. Occasionally, she has to get between Sam and Freddie when they are arguing too much.

She gets good grades and usually stays out of trouble, except for when she takes the blame for Sam's misdeeds.

She is easily grossed out by vermin, the gross videos Sam likes or even just by Spencer saying "bowels" in "iTake on Dingo". In "iSpace Out", it was also shown she gets claustrophobic when she is locked in a room for several hours.

In "iWanna Stay With Spencer", it was implied Carly used to be a sickly child, since according to Spencer, she has to take vitamins every day and suffers from allergies and asthma. She had her last asthma attack when she was seven years old.

With other Main Characters

 *  Sam Puckett:  Carly and Sam met when they were about eight years old and Sam wanted to steal Carly´s tuna sandwich. When Carly fought back, Sam was impressed and they became friends. To this day, they share a close friendship that some fans even think of as (platonic?) love (see: Cam ).


 * Carly acts as a moral guardian to Sam, trying to keep her out of trouble and occasionally taking the blame for her pranks. Although Carly has no material gain from being friends with Sam, she likes her for being "creative and smart and fun and awesome" and was deeply saddened when she experienced an alternate reality where she wasn´t friends with her (iChristmas). Occasionally, Sam´s laziness causes tension between the two.


 * Freddie Benson: Carly is very aware of Freddie´s crush on her and occasionally exploits that he would do anything for her if she says "Please? For me?". They keep up a good friendship, though, and know they can rely on each other when it´s necessary.


 * Spencer Shay: Carly and her brother usually have a good relationship and have fun hanging out together. Carly acts as the voice of reason or as an emotional support when needed, but can also rely on him when she has trouble. She is used to him letting her have a lot of freedom and gets irritated if he occasionally gets strict with her (iLook Alike).

Boyfriends/Dates
In "iLike Jake", she had a crush on Jake and he liked her back. After Jake sees Carly give Freddie a nose kiss ( for helping to make Jake's singing voice sound good for the web show ), he believes that they are a couple. Because of this, Jake decides to get back together with his ex-girlfriend, leaving Carly single.
 * Jake


 * Shane

She went out with him when Sam was also going out with him in "iSaw Him First" which made Carly and Sam both jealous and mad with each other.They later vowed they won't ever argue over a boy again since it'll ruin their friendship.


 * Griffin

She dated him in "iDate a Bad Boy" until she found out he collects PeeWee Babies. She tried to make the relationship work, but then Griffin overheard Carly and Sam making fun of his PeeWee Babies and broke up with Carly.

Carly chose him as her date in "iSpeed Date". At the end of the episode, she dumped him because he interrupted her with random sentences whenever she wanted to say something.
 * Austin

Freddie has a crush on Carly ever since he met her, but she constantly rejects him and says she just wants to be friends with him. In "ILike Jake", Carly gave Freddie a nosekiss "strictly nasal" and in "iSpeed Date", they slow-dance together. They were in a relationship in "iSaved Your Life", but Sam convinced Freddie that Carly only was touched that he saved her life and isn't in love with him, but what he did. They broke up, but agreed that if Carly still likes him when he's out of the casts, they can date again. In a future season 4 episode of iCarly, Carly and Freddie go out on a date. This episode is called iStill Love You and it will be the second episode of season 4. Season 4 will start in June 2010. (see: Creddie).
