I don’t need to know you don’t like any of them just interested in which spelling of May and Susie vs Sukie or Sukey

All pretty bad. But Sukie is horrendous.

Susie May

Dinoteeth · 13/04/2022 20:16

Sukie as in the song, Polly put the kettle on, Sukey took it off again?

Or Sookie like sookie sweeties, or a big sook?

Not a good choice for a name

Suki Mae is lovely.

MacaroniCheeseCat · 13/04/2022 20:38

May rather than Mae/Mai for me, although I think the Mae goes better with Sukie/Sukey than with Susie, for what it’s worth. If Susie, I would stick with Mae.

I agree with others about Susannah because I love the name! But I think I prefer Susie, followed by Sukey, followed by Sukie (the latter doesn’t look quite right to me, although I appreciate it’s a correct spelling).

Susannah May nn Susie

BungleandGeorge · 13/04/2022 22:14

I prefer May but if you’re using the name to honour a family member I think you need to use whatever spelling they have.
I prefer Susie but Sukie is ok too

Babyboomtastic · 13/04/2022 22:21

Apologies if this sounds a bit crude, but my first thought with Sukey/Sukie is that its going to get them a lot of grief in secondary school.

Its to similar to Suck Me. Or Sucky Me, which isn't much better

I know that's not how is pronounced, but try taking that to a bunch of teenager boys.

Sorry.

It’s just too cowgirl

But Susannah May nn Sukey is nice

Mai is terrible

Susie May

Thehundredthnamechange · 14/04/2022 06:17

I adore Susie and Sukie, as a nickname for Susannah. Prefer Sukie, but dislike either as the full name.

May is fine. The other spellings are naff.

Saltyquiche · 14/04/2022 06:27

Susie is lovely

yikesanotherbooboo · 14/04/2022 09:38

Susannah May for me.
Then call her Susie or Sukie as you prefer, my choice would be Susie.If May is for family reasons don't change the spelling , it is by far my preferred spelling in any case.

DiamondBright · 14/04/2022 12:14

Is May a middle name or hyphenated second first name?

I think it's fine as a middle name, but absolutely done to death as a hyphenated first name, a trend that won't date well IMO and I suspect many kids will drop the second name as they get older.

Everyone will assume it's a fashion choice and not a family name.

Padderbadger · 15/04/2022 02:22

I prefer Sukie May

ANUsernam · 15/04/2022 02:33

Sukie May

MrsMangelsPortrait · 15/04/2022 02:42

Sukie is dreadful.

Josette77 · 15/04/2022 02:50

Sukie Mae
