I would use a name that could be part of a sentence

The maiden rose from ....

And it sounds like a boat I'm afraid.

GotToBeInItToWinIt · 27/02/2015 09:15

Sounds like an elderly virgin to me. Or a boat. Sailor is becoming more popular? Where are you?

PrimroseEverdeen · 27/02/2015 09:14

Awful, as is Saylor. Don't do it!

I like some of the other suggestions on the thread.

fattymcfatfat · 27/02/2015 09:13

Baylor and Ballons Grin

Only1scoop · 27/02/2015 09:12

And to be honest it's an adjective for a spinster so not the best choice maybe Op....any others on your list?

SoupDragon · 27/02/2015 09:12

Why the hell would you saddle your daughter with a name like Maiden? Confused It's cruel.

Not to my taste. My first thought was virgin.

Only1scoop · 27/02/2015 09:10

Maiden over ....cricket

maiden rack....clothes airer

Old Maid ....cards

Celticlass2 · 27/02/2015 09:10

Chavtastic.

TheFairyCaravan · 27/02/2015 09:09

It's awful, as is Saylor.

Sparklingbrook · 27/02/2015 09:09

Isn't it some sort of clothes drying thing too?

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 27/02/2015 09:07

I agree, Maiden conjures up images of a medieval virgin in a pointy hat! What about something with a similar sound like Meghan or Morgan?

DrSeuss · 27/02/2015 09:07

Rose is lovely.

Sparklingbrook · 27/02/2015 09:06

Sounds like something you could possibly see at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.

Methe · 27/02/2015 09:05

It does sound like the name of a canal boat to me too, sorry.

Pengting · 27/02/2015 09:05

Reminds me of sex for some reason. Like maiden is virginity. Just no.

Only1scoop · 27/02/2015 09:03

The maiden aunt

The maiden voyage....

Could be the Maiden mistake of a name I feel

fattymcfatfat · 27/02/2015 09:02

I like iron maiden but would never call my child maiden. its awful

OttiliaVonBCup · 27/02/2015 09:02

Sounds like a name of a cleaning company.

Don't do this to your child.

HellKitty · 27/02/2015 09:00

Shyanne? Like Shy Anne? Hmm.
And Maiden Rose is awful, sorry.

applecatchers36 · 27/02/2015 08:57

Sounds like a euphemism for someone's virginity...

Only1scoop · 27/02/2015 08:54

'Shyanne....name is sky'

I'm a bit confused about name of sibling?

scarletforya · 27/02/2015 08:54

Yeah, it's just another word for virgin/young girl. Doesn't sound edgy, just like a word in the place of a name, sorry.

(And I like Iron Maiden!)
