Myaa-Graice

[Helena888]

My friend is currently expecting a little girl. She posted on Facebook the other day, that her daughter's name would be Myaa-Graice. I actually thought she was joking! It looks awful! Nobody will ever be able to spell the poor child's name. I think she should call her Maya Grace instead without hyphen and weird spelling. Wanted to see what everyone else thinks.

I think your fri

I think your friend is nuts.

Stupid name.

Oh dear

Good grief.

What on earth is this fashion with spelling names as weirdly as you can

Seriously, I don't get it

Ghastly

Maybe your friend's computer has a sticky keyboard and she really meant Maya Grace

I'm hoping breakfast is right ^^

I think most people think she has spelt Gracie wrong.

Someone at my school was called Graice but now on all social media she spells it Grace so I always wonder if she's now changed her name officially.

Christ on a bike. Have you reported her to social services yet?

Awful. Poor child.

At least I won't be alone with a stupid spelling with all these new babies! Sadly they're decades younger than me, but at least they'll understand the total stupidity of the misspellings.

Why not laugh and say are your keyboard keys sticky! Maya grace is lovely!

Surely that’s pronounced
My-aah Grice as the ai makes an ‘i’ sound Not an A sound

Yes I might do that actually. Did think it may be some kind of typo at first, but she's posted a few times with same spelling

Maya is a nice name, Grace is a nice name...but I don't think they go together that well, and your friends spelling is ridiculous...the child will spend a lifetime correcting everyone on the spelling, it looks like she is trying too hard to give the baby a trendy name, but instead it makes two lovely names appear chavvy

I think she would call her Maya Grace I think she should call her own baby whatever she wants. What the fuck has it got to do with you?

Is it your baby Candyflip? Why do you not spell your user name KannDeeeee-Flyppe?

Because that’s my sister’s name. My mom needed to tell us apart. It really has nothing to do with the OP (or any judgey fuckers on this thread) what people want to call their own child.

It is dreadful. I think it would improve if she would just spell both names correctly.

Candyflip, Myaa-Graice is not a label I would want anyone to foist on an innocent child. The child would have to live with it, day in, day out. I think the conventional spelling Maia-Grace looks so much better. I don't like hyphenated first names (Ok on the continent but not in the UK), I don't particularly like the name Maia, and I think Grace is overused as a middle name, but at least it looks like a name.

Yes we are judgey but so are you.

😂 how is what I said in any way judgey?

The spelling is ridiculous!

It's like announcing you've called your child 'Cat' but you're spelling it 'Dog'
