[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

i know its a baby-names-community but i really need help and i havent found a comunity to help me with it.
so it would be great if there woud be a few suggestions!:]

my name is Mai or May or however you wanna write it,
i dont even know, some people call me "Ma-ai" and people who speak english would be calling me "Me-y"
i prefer "Mai" tho.
a while ago i met this weird girl i told her my name and she was like "thats it?"
because my name is short
i really wanted to have a full name or a longer name or somethng!
SOOO i want some suggestions for a middle name:]
or what do you prefer generally May or Mai?

I know a girl from Japan named Maiko and she goes by Mai, I like it.

I love May and Mai. They both sound so cute, especially as part of a double barreled name. I especially adore the name Maisie, so Mai :)

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

thank you!
i thought maybe adding a double barrled name
like Marie or something like that

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

Maiko is so japanese and Mai too...
still its not japanese just the month:P
ty<3

Mai I would pronounce like 'my' if I didn't know any better. I like it though!

^ & Maiko is really cute!

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

thank you:]

[fairyfantastic.livejournal.com]

^^^^^ that was meant to be a general response, oops!

It's perfectly fine to have a short name! If I saw your name written out, I'd pronounce it "my"
Is that right? I think it's a fine name. I prefer Mai over May.

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

thanks!
yah thats what i meant, mai sounds like "my"
ugh "mey" mai i really dont know which i like the better
but i would want it to go together with a middle name
for example:
Marie May
or May Marie
or Mai -

[giveitfullheart.livejournal.com]

Mai is hard to give a middle name! To me, it would work best as the middle name but even that would be difficult to find something that flows really well.

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

youre right...
but it would be ok to write Marie May i guess
but May is my name not my middle name so it should be written as May Marie i think its ok
i still didnt find any good middle name
i thought of a lot but i dont know... Marie is one which i love but im still looking

[poutyshorty.livejournal.com]

May, definitely. It's one of my fave girls' names.

My cousin's name is May, but it's short for Maya-Marie lol.

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

is it? well ive been called after the month
if so i prefer Marie i never liked Maya
but my name isnt a short for anything its just the month itself:]

[idrinkacidrain.livejournal.com]

I pronounce Mai as my. I prefer the spelling of Mae, but love Mae and Maisie as nicknames for Margaret.

Margaret Julienne? Margaret Miranda? Margaret Adele?

[maiuhime.livejournal.com]

Mae? how do you spell Mae?
i think im gonna go with Marie as a middle name
but i wish Mai really was longer i dont really like Margaret either

[crzydimond.livejournal.com]

This just reminded me of a friend I have, she's Chinese and her name is Jiao Li [first name, last name].
So her whole name is only 6 letters!
I think it's find of neat.

[crzydimond.livejournal.com]

And by 'find' I clearly meant 'kind'.
Oops!

I'm a May. I'm actually the cousin oj poutyshorty who mentioned me above :P

I'm Maya-Marie, May for short :D I hate Maya-Marie, so I call myself May.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

I'm confused. You don't know what your name is? .__.
Is it spelled Mai or May ? The first is "my", the latter is "m-ay".

For the record, Mai in italian means "never".
It sounds Japanese (are you?), and I think it's cool :)

Truthfully, it's hard to suggest middle names for such a short name without a frame of reference. What type of names do you like?

here's also a great tool to start :)

I'll give some suggestions that popped to my mind, then the Genie confirmed!

Mai Josephine
Mai Karen
Mai Evelyn
Mai Nicole

I found out that your name means Dance in Japanese, and I love that!

[ollivander.livejournal.com]

My name is May and my middle name is Dawn, but I tell everyone that Danger is my middle name :P

Seriously.

My coworker's name is Mai (She's Vietnamese) and pronounces it "My".
