Re: Maya
in reply to a message by Lily8
Maya is lovely. I had a friend growing up named Ingrid Maya. It was the first time I learned of a mn that wasn't Marie, Ann(e) or Lynn. I still think the two names flow beautifully together. Maya makes a great mn.
But that's not what you're asking. Maya as a fn. It's still popular. I prefer Maia, but Maya is great too. I dislike the Mya spelling because (a) it's not traditional and I'm a snob; and (b) I never know if it's supposed to be Maya ("MIE-uh") or Mia ("MEE-uh") -- VERY annoying.
Great sibling set to work with. How about:
Estella Sophie, Adelaida True (Ada), Maya Celeste and Jessamine Pearl?
Estella Ruby, Adelaida True (Ada), Maya Guinevere and Jessamine Blythe?
Estella Charlotte, Adelaida True (Ada), Maya Ginger and Jessamine Carys?
Estella Frances, Adelaida True (Ada), Maya Persephone and Jessamine Isabeau?
Estella Jane, Adelaida True (Ada), Maya Inez and Jessamine Esme?
Estella Mercy, Adelaida True (Ada), Maya Roxane and Jessamine Clio?
Thanks for a fun exercise. I'd love to hear if any of these please you. Mix and match, of course. :-)
