Is May too popular? I know it's used a lot as a middle name but do you know many little May's? I love it as a stand alone name.

I don't know anyone called May.

Am a teacher and have never come across a May. It's pretty.

That's really good to know. I really love it just didn't want it to sound too bland if it was over popular as the middle name usage is

I don't know anybody with the first name May, but absolutely loads of children with it as a middle name. May as a first name is really lovely, I love it!

I don't know anyone with that name as a first name.

It's lovely on its own, just like Marie, Rose, Grace are (just other popular middle names that come to mind).

It's overused as a middle name and it would be nice to see it used as a first name. It's simple and sweet, and definitely a standalone name. As a first name I don't think it's popular at all.
