How do you pronounce Maeve??

[Passthebiscuitspls]

Just that really; is it pronounced is in rhyming with pave or rhyming with Neve?
Thanks!

Rhymes with Page for me.

Pave

Rhymes with pave.

There is a Maeve in DD's class, rhymes with Pave

It's pronounced Mave to rhyme with Knave. It's a lovely Irish name. I would probably spell it Maedbh but Maeve is a very acceptable and commonly used alternative!

Thanks for he replies! I'm trying to find a middle name to go with Sadie and wondered if that would go. Our surname is really tricky so not a lot goes!
I have a tribute middle name of Maude but I'm not sure I love it. Which do you think goes best?
Thanks again!

It's an Irish name meaning 'intoxicating'. I would spell it Méabh.

Sorry meant to say it rhymes with 'pave'!

I met one years ago who pronouced it with an 'ee' sound.

In Scotland, I'd say May-vhh
