Honest opinions on this girls name?

[kizzle]

Thanks for clicking!
So first baby is due in just over 11 weeks, and we have kept the sex a surprise.
We have a boys name set but still thinking about a girls name.
We both love Macy but my DP would love his late grandmothers name as the middle name.
The name is May.

Can we really have a Macy May?

Thanks for any input.

Fuck, no.

It sounds a little ridiculous

I normally can't stand any alliteration. I can't even look at names that begin with the same letter as my DP's surname.

Just checking pregnancy brain hasn't clouded my judgement!
Thanks!

kizzle what is alliteration?

Isn't there a movie called Martha Macy May Marlene?!

Anyway, I actually like Macy May!

Could you add another name in between?
Macy Katherine May for example?
It breaks it up a bit.

PS or you could have Macy Esme or something? I know it's a totally diff name but still has the "may" sound in there

It's where 2 names or words beginning with the same letter follow each other

Which is a shame as my DP's name is a very popular surname beginning with the letter 'J' so any names I like beginning with that letter are a no go!

Never thought of adding a second middle name, that could possibly work.
Thanks for the heads up!

Babybrain had no part to play here! It's not great!

It's a bit southern Belle but day to day she'll be Macy right?

It's cute.

I like that, Esmae/Esme was on the shortlist - then we got confused with the whole Es-may/Es-mee pronunciation so we scrapped it!

I like it!

Yes she will be known as Macy.
May will just be the middle name.

I don't like it

I agree with PP who suggested Macy something May

I agree about another middle name breaking it up. Otherwise I don't personally like the name.

My DP has 3 middle names (he has his 2 grandfathers & great grandfathers names bless him)
Whereas I only have 1 middle name.
I guess giving a baby 2 middle names isn't that bad?
I could have my grandmothers name too then.

Thanks again.

It's cute, why on earth not?!

I have 2 middle names, my sister has 3. It's fine.

If you like it then why the hell not? You'll never get a positive response on MN to the middle name May. Just go for it op you can have whatever name you like.

Why not, it sounds cute. Besides middle names are hardly used, really, are they?

I didn't realise May was hated on MN🙈
I wouldn't have asked otherwise... silly me.
I do personally like the name, and my DP does too, just wanted others opinions.
We haven't told any family or friends about any name ideas as I know it can all change!

Macy Alice May?

Add another name and its OK.

I think this is a case where you need another name between Macy and May. Anything you like from your side of the family?
