Help[Opinions] Re: May
in reply to a message by Gaia
I think May is a sweet name that has great potential to become annoying, the same way Lily, Ella, Mia etc do. Short vintage names always seem to have that risk to them. I think too much May would strip it of its delicate appeal.
I prefer Mae slightly, because it has a stronger personality. Mae is a scrapper.
May is the middle is lovely if a bit bland. Mae in the middle is twangy and bumpkin cute. It is an excellent middle syllable though, and I wouldn't be surprised if it gets more popular there.
Something like May Eloise or May Lillian would be pretty. Mae is harder to combo.... Maybe something like Mae Jeannine or Mae Frances? It needs something with a bit more edge than pretty little May.
I do love Maia, that's an old childhood fave, it's beautiful, light, and mythological, just my type of thing when I was 10. And I know it's trendy nowadays, but the only one I ever met was a Maya and she'd be in her 40s by now!
