Out of those 3 definitely Mae. I would spell it May but that’s just my preference

Blaze is the name of a (male) monster machine on popular kids tv show.

I would go with Nevina Mae

I know a girl called Blaise and I think it’s really cool OP. Other than that, Mae, but spelt May

Another vote for May, not Mae, sorry Smile. Very nice and quite unusual as a first name.

I did know a Blaze or maybe it was Blaise but pronounced like Blaze, at university. She got very grumpy when people were a bit surprised by it. Offputting!

I've never heard of Nevina. Sounds imilar to Nevaeh...not mad about either.

I prefer Mae (spelled May) from your list.

Blaze is a name that I associate with dogs. Have you considered Blythe instead?

Definitely Mae, though I'd personally spell it May

Mae (or may)
It’s simple, pretty and underused a a first name.

Mae is pretty.
I know a man called Blaze

Mae is gorgeous and very underused as a first name. But I'd also suggest using the much more popular/well known May spelling - as most people will assume this and it could be easier on your DD not to have to spell her name.

Nevina is okay, very unusual but sounds useable enough. Blaze is not good, sorry (sounds like a stage name or horses name to me).

I like Nevina.

I agree, Mae but spelt as May. With Nevina, I think Niamh would be an alternative I would prefer?

I love Nerina but not sure about Nevina.

May is beautiful.

Niamh (neev) is nice or Nia (nee-ah)?
