Maisie and ??

[icedaisy]

We have Maisie Ivy.

Due baby two later in year and recommencing name battle.

She was Jemima until I saw her and she was just not a Jemima, she is my Maisie moo. I adore her name, she absolutely owns it.

I like ie sounding names and we are in Scotland. Dh likes traditional Scottish names.

So far we have
Rosie
Holly
Poppy

Murdoch
Issac
Fergus

None of these I LOVE like I do Maisie. Although I didn't love Maisie till I saw her.

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts or combinations which might work?

I also love Scarlett but dh does not and there is a local accent issue with it becoming scarluh

I like Fergus, not keen on Isaac or Murdoch.
Your girls names are nice, I wouldn't use Rosie with Masie though. They're not very Scottish though. I think names with an "a" on the end sound better with Maisie than ones that end "ie" or "y".
Flora
Freya
Ava
Isla (too popular?)
Martha
Ailsa

Oh a names, this I had not considered.

Oh yes I know not Scottish, read it back and thought I made no sense. I meant dh loves Scottish names, I like ie sound and we both seemed to like the examples given.

Ailsa is interesting.

Maggie was the other dh said while I remember, thank you.

Flora
Heather
Morag
Isabella
Elsa

Dh also said Joseph!! Maisie and Joseph at Christmas. Oh dear.

You both say flora, that's not a name I've heard used. I quite like it.

Love Morag, love it.

What about the margarine with Flora? Do kids get that picked up on.

It's strange the babies sometimes name themselves, isn't it.
Maisie and
Lucy.
Heidi
Cassie
Ruby
Annie
Ellie
Penny

Isla.
Katie.
Eliza

Penny is lovely. Really like that.

Yes absolutely. She was a section delivery so nurses announced she was a girl and asked if I had a name, I said Jemima, they write it down and hand her to me and I'm like no no, she's not a Jemima. Fifteen years in the waiting and took me days to name her.

Maisie and...
Iona
Caitlin
Flora
Belle

Isla
Talia
Thea
Rhea

Oh lots I like, great.

Iona, Isla etc very popular here just now.

What about boys? I really struggle with boys names. Only name last time was Gabriel. I think I might have done a Jemima and changed my mind.

Doesn't help I was a criminal, family lawyer so have a lot of name associated issues!

Darcy
Phoebe
Connie

(The more you read the lists of two ‘ie’ sound ending names OP, the more they sound a little ‘twee’ 🤦‍♀️...sorry!)

Eg Maisie and Rosie, Maisie and Daisy (individually lovely names, just not as a pairing)

Whereas...

Maisie and Isla, Maisie and Beth, Maisie and Thea...still lovely names, roll off the tongue better, doesn’t sound twee or ‘cutesy’ 👍

Keir
Innes
Brodie
Ramsay

From your lists

I totally agree @GinWithRosie it starts to get very twee if you're not careful! I love Maggie but not with Maisie.
