1. How do you feel about the name Alice spelled the original way: Alys?

2. Do you think most people would just think its a Kre8tive spelling on the part of the parents?


3. Do you think Alys goes with a twin sister Maya? Feel free to suggest other siblings for Alys or Maya.

4. And from my Aunt: Is Freya and Maya to close for twin sisters? How about Leila and Maya?

Completely agree.




Alys and Maya look ok to me as a set, but sound like totally different names and completely different naming styles. Ideas I kind of like with Maya: Briony, Fiona, Serphina, Acadia, Penelope, Caliope, Juno.

I have to disagree a bit on that one. Maya, to me, isn't a global name in an old-fashioned/literary/historical way, though I know the name itself is thousands of years old. Maya is global in a trendy way; I picture siblings named Nevada, Zahara, Eli, Levi, etc... names that instead of bringing of the world in the context of universities and libraries, makes a person think of the history via the great outdoors.
