Last name Zotto.
I’d take [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] over [name_f]Maia[/name_f]. Personally, I don’t like names with a lot of vowels together like that. Plus, I knew a girl named [name_u]Ariel[/name_u], and though she got teased (just playfully) about being a mermaid, I always liked it. You don’t hear it too often.
I much prefer [name_u]Ariel[/name_u]. It’s sweet and spunky
Definitely [name_u]Ariel[/name_u]!
Both are nice but I would probably pick [name_u]Ariel[/name_u], [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] [name_f]Maia[/name_f] Zotto is nice actually
[name_u]Ariel[/name_u] is much more unusual, easier to spell and very beautiful
I prefer [name_u]Ariel[/name_u]. It’s sweet but it’s also spunky and a bit different.
100% [name_f]Maia[/name_f]. Who wouldn’t want a kicka$$ goddess AND star as namesakes?? However, I am biased as I see [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] as more of a male name - on girls it strikes me as a bit sickly sweet.
Definitely [name_u]Ariel[/name_u]. [name_u]Love[/name_u] that name!
I much prefer [name_f]Maia[/name_f]. [name_f]Maia[/name_f] [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] flow nicely.
I prefer [name_u]Ariel[/name_u]. The spelling and pronounication is more straightforward for others, it’s sweet and lively.
I think [name_f]Maia[/name_f] fits in nicely with the trend of gods and goddesses, and while I love ancient mythology, I have always been hesitant to use the name of a god or goddess for a baby. If you are feeling it though, [name_f]Maia[/name_f] certainly isn’t a bad choice.
[name_m]Even[/name_m] if it were between [name_f]Maya[/name_f] and [name_u]Ariel[/name_u], I would still choose [name_u]Ariel[/name_u].
Though I slightly prefer [name_f]Maia[/name_f] in general, with the last name Zotto, I’d give my vote to [name_u]Ariel[/name_u], just because [name_f]Maia[/name_f] Zotto kinda runs together and sounds like a dish you’d find on the menu at an Italian restaurant.
I much prefer [name_f]Maia[/name_f] over [name_u]Ariel[/name_u], but they both sound nice with Zotto. Slight edge to [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] Zotto.
[name_f]Maia[/name_f] is alright, but I prefer [name_u]Ariel[/name_u].
[name_f]Maia[/name_f] is pretty! [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] makes me think of the mermaid.
i like them both. i guess i associate ariel with either jewish roots or disney vibes, but i still really like the name. maia (or maya) is super international and lovely. if you wanted something more italian sounding, i’d go with maia. i’m from italy and the name is somewhat used here. i would also recommend miriam, which in a way is a combo or ariel and maia. miriam zotto is suberb.
I prefer [name_u]Ariel[/name_u]
