Middle name for Maya

Think we’ve finally settled on Maya but struggling with a middle name. No family names we could use really. Want to avoid Grace/Rose.
I suggested Maya Isabelle and Maya Olivia but husband not keen.
Any suggestions?

How do you intend on pronouncing Maya?

lobododo · 02/11/2024 14:07

My-ah

I’ve seen people on here pronouncing it May-ah but I’ve never come across that before and everyone I know says My-ah

I think it depends how many syllables your surname has.
If you have a multi syllable surname then a one syllable middle name, if you have a one syllable surname then a multi syllable middle name.

edit to add- I have no idea why I quoted your post.

I was going to suggest Maya Elise but I realized it sounds like may release. 🤣

I have a Charlotte Maya who was very nearly Maya Charlotte...

I would have loved either.

You..... made me laugh out loud...
Thank you, I've had an otherwise upsetting week...

I think Maya is lovely and quite a 'singsongy' name if you know what I mean so I'd go with a simple middle name (just like the length and sound of rose or Grace but not them)

Maya Faith
Maya Jean
Maya Jade
Maya Beth
Maya Kate
Maya Wren
Maya Pearl

Pearl was my thought!

I do think it needs to be 1 syllable.
