Any thoughts? I like it and don't know anyone called it. Always on the look out for something that is not everywhere but not too strange. What does it make you think of / picture?

Beautiful and Mae is a correct spelling of it and not faddy as some have suggested. I'm one of those people who seem to have annoyed lots of others by choosing it as a middle name for dd Smile. If I'd had a dd2 she would have been Rose. Go for it, it's gorgeous, and a little sassier than May imo.

Love the name. It sounds and looks beautiful. Proposed 'Maida' when DD was born, but vetoed by DH.

Love the name. It looks and sounds beautiful. I proposed 'Maida' when DD was born only to have DH veto it.

The Mae spelling makes me think of the clampets Blush

I prefer the May spelling. It is a pretty name and sounds nice as a first name.

I have a great aunt MAE who is 91 love the spelling and prefer it to may unless it's a may birthday.

I like Mae. I think it would suit a baby, but also grow well with her.
