Matilda - always loved and love the nn options
Alice - love that it's timeless and suits all ages but unsure if I love it or just know it pleases people?
Maisie - it's very pretty and love that I could use May as a nn as that's a family name but using May as a first name doesn't match our surname

I know many feel Maisie is too cutesy but I personally don't get that vibe from it, especially with the different names around these days.

So which do you prefer?

Love Matilda and Maisie.

I'm a teacher - never taught a Maisie and only taught one Matilda.

Maisie

Matilda's are ten a penny in my area so it lost its appeal long ago even though it was a nice ice always been fond of

Alice is nice but it doesn't sound like you really want to use it

Maisie is lovely and I like May and the family connection

LOVE Matilda and like Alice. Maisie is quite wet and meh for me, but if you get different vibes from
It that’s what counts.

I have a Mathilda and only met a couple of others. Only one other at her largeish secondary school. She's never ever been Tilly. She's Mathilda mostly or Tilda occasionally. Her v good friends sometimes call her Matty.

Alice gets my vote

Alice. We almost had an Alice, but went with Alba.

Instead of a Tilly you can go for Tilda. Matilda and Alice are my dds middle names so I like both Grin not keen on Maisie but it’s a perfectly fine name.

Alice is my favourite! Matilda and Maisie are cute for small kids but not fond of them for adults.

DramaAlpaca · 03/03/2022 22:03

Alice or Matilda. Both lovely names.

Definitely not Maisie, it's so twee and cutesy it makes my teeth itch.
