Jamila also easy to say xx

Logged in to say Avni, but love your choice of Maya.

I'd go for another one syllable middle name.

Whoops, didn't see your newest post!
Maya Grace is my favourite of the 3.

I'd say Maya Lily or even another flower name, how about:-

Violet, Heather, Pansy

In fact Maya Violet sounds nice. But I think Maya Lily!

Maya Tansy
Maya Eliza

Is there a need to have a Hindi / Indian name rather than a Muslim names?

Many suggested are very Muslim identity.

Which may or may not be what is needed.

I think you should stick with a single syllable middle name.

Or how about Zara May?
