Mazey/Mazee or Masyn for a girl?

We are expecting our second girl in April - Our 2 year old daughters name is Mya. We would like a "M" name again. What do you think of Mazey or Mazee? Is Masyn too boyish? We need a middle name as well? Please help us find a name as cute as Mya Lin.

Mazey/Mazee- love this, but I think Maisie or Maisy might 'grow up' better, plus the it looks less like an adjective derived from the word maze (Maisie and Maisy are pronounced the same way as Mazee, with the z sound). Maisie Anne? or, since she's a spring baby, Maisy Rose, Maisie Lily, Maisie Flora, Maisy Fleur?

I do think Masyn is a bit harsh/masculine next to the cute and feminine Mya.

I like it, but not spelt Mazey or Mazee- I don't like the Z. Maisie is cute. I like Masyn as well. How about Marissa Rose, Marlee Claire, or Malena Faye?

I think Masey is very cute, yet I can't see a 40 year old woman named Masey KWIM?

Mya Lynn and Masey Rae sound adorable

Best of luck! Let us know what you decide!

I think that both are great names, but with big sister Mya, I think that Masyn is a bit harsh. I do love Mazey, but I prefer it spelt Maisie.

However, I thought it was great that you spelt Mya's name phonetically, so I would like to suggest these spellings: Maisy (looks like Daisy, so might be pronounced right!), Mayzee, Maezy, Mayzey, Mayzie and Maizee.

Must say my favs are Maisy and Mayzie! :)

Some cute names to go with Mya Lin

Maisy Rose*
Maisy Renay
Maisy Jane
Mayzie Raine
Mayzie Erin
Maisy Louise
Maisy Lee*
Maisy Jean
Maisy Anne
Maisy Neeve
Maisy Heather

My vote goes to Maisy Lee (keeping the ML initials) and Maisy Rose (just cute) :) Both go well with Mya Lin.

Good Luck!

I like the name Mya Lin! I think that Mayzee is pretty but it's nms...

I do however like the name Masyn - my dh and I are forming our "best names" list and we were considering Macyn or Maecyn as one of the top girl names. I have however run into a lot of flack about it being more masculine and not so feminine, esp against Garrett our top boys name. I do think it's cute though and it's not overused like some of the other "M" names which adds to it's appeal.

I did however think of a few extras just in case : )

Malia (Ma-lee-ah)
Madalyn
Mara/Marah
Marin/Maryn
Maris

HTH! Good Luck and Congrats!
