Just want to get thoughts from women who don't know me...

May was my grandmother's middle name so that's a definite.

I really like the name Artemis but it seems so grown up and old so I'm thinking Misty for a nickname.

Does Misty May sound too cutesy?

Thank you for your input!!!! Smile

I know a lovely Greek lady named Artemis. Her family call her Temi (tee-me) which I think is brilliant

I bloody love Artemis! I thought it was a boy's name until I read this thread. It's great for a girl!

I like Artemis.
Misty is an anime Pokémon character in my life and quite twee, so I wouldn't use that.

I like Roselia mentioned up thread. Also recently met a baby called Meloetta, but shortened to Etta which I thought was beautiful.
Baby names are so hard to pick

Bit 70s porn star / playboy model. BUTTTTT super cute. I do love it.

Artemis May is super cool. I’m less keen on Misty May but can’t quite pinpoint why. Arty as a nickname could be cute?

Artemis Is absolutely fabulous I love it!!!
I would use Artie as a nn personally as i think Misty is a bit of a stripper name.

Misty is a great name but no way paired with May. And agree with the Mae comments. If you’re going to use Misty she’ll need a nice strong middle name. Misty Alexandra, Misty Olive or Olivia etc etc
