Help with girl name
| Fri, 12-08-2006 - 6:34pm |
My Mom's middle name is Mae. I would like to use that name somehow but not by it's self. The only thing I could come up with is Maegan. Any other ideas using the word MAE in a girl's name?

Mae-Lee
Mei Lei
Mélie
Maebrooke
Maelyn
Maelin
Maena
Billy-Mae
Susie-Mae
Sally-Mae
Jenny-Mae etc.
The only ones I could think of were Maegan, Mabel, Maeve, and Mavis. Another similar idea might be Mattea or any other name that starts with Ma-...
Marina
Martina
Marissa
Marisa
Madeline
Marta
Mara
Or you could use Mae as the mn and possibly make a double name with it. My younger DD's mn is May because that was my grandmother's mn, and we sometimes call her Annie May.

I think using Mae on its own is really the best choice. It gives a direct connection to your mom without being contrived and it is a beautiful, classic name. Sometimes it doesn't matter how much you love the name, as long as it has significance, after all, you will have a first name that you love if this in only the mn. I do love the suggestion of Maeve (like Dave with an M).
