Maci, Piper or jayda?

[Sophielaser11]

I love Maci but my husband loves Jayda and Piper. Thoughts?

Piper is beautiful.

Maci I read as Maccies as in Maccies D's for tea, then reread as Macie as in Macie Grey (sic). Imo you need the E to capitalise the sound of the a (magic E!) as otherwise it literally is m ah cuh ih vs m aye si ee

Jayda is fine but not ry keen

What about Maisie instead?

Jayda is like Jayden for a girl and a bit chavy.

Macy or Macie are ok but not Maci. It would always be pronounced Mackie.

Piper is the least bad.

I wouldn't saddle my DD with any of them to be honest.

Piper brings to mind Orange is the new Black and even there I thought it was an odd name.

Don't lime Jayda.

Maci nope, Maisie is lovely.

*like

None of those 3 are very nice op sorry.

Piper
Jada or Jadi
Macy

Are fine. And I count myself as middle class these days. I agree with what others have said re alternative spellings, they chavvify even the nicest of names.

I could not, for the life of me, work out how to pronounce Maci until I saw the other posts. The best I could come up with was Mackie which sounds too like mucky.

If you want to call her Macy, FFS, call her Macy.

Ooh ive never had a post deleted before!
I’m surprised someone can say they’re a bit teen-mom and I’m not allowed to say chavvy!

They are all awful IMHO. But its all a matter of personal taste.

I actually like Jayda and I know of one who's about 8 or 9 now. Maci needs to be spelled Macie or Macey, but I wouldn't use it, personally. Piper is fairly awful though.

Piper is the least bad of them, but makes me think of someone playing the bagpipes

Maci - is it Macy or Macky or something else?

Jayda - really ugly spelling, sorry.

I think they are all fine, but I’d also prefer a more conventional spelling of Maci if it was my name. I like Jayda and Piper, I don’t know any kids of that name round my local school area.

Jayda sounds really trashy.

Maci would be OK if spelt correctly.

Piper is OK, feels like an American name, not sure why. Not that it matters either way.

What an original response 🙄

I read Maci as Makky. As in Makky D's 🍔🍟😂

Your list would be more liked here if they were pretentious names like Ottilie or Theodora.

I like the spelling of Jade (like Jada Pinkett).
Piper is nice but getting v popular.
Like pp, not keen on the spelling of “Maci”. Just stick to the original spelling!

But, it doesn't go from pretentious straight to chavvy.. There are also the majority which come somewhere in between..

Not a good idea to ask on here OP as it’s full of snobby upper-class wannabes. Only names like Elizabeth and Clementine are acceptable. God forbid anyone might think you are working-class 🙄

I love Piper, was on my list but dh ruled it out.
Not personally keen on the others but it’s always your choice. However I do know a teen Maci and it suits her perfectly

@TwilightSkies Elizabeth is a classless name imo. I can easily imagine someone from any walk of life called Elizabeth (probably why Eliza Doolittle got her name).

It doesn’t change the truth of what I said.

Piper.

Not a fan of Jayda or Maci tbh.

Maci - too much like Maccy D
Jayda - don't like it, sorry. Probably because it reminds me too much of Jada Smith who I dislike (along with her thug husband)
Piper - I sort of like it, but not sure. It's OK.
