How do we spell May-gen?

Girl Names
1

It’s like [name_f]Megan[/name_f], but with a “[name_f]May[/name_f]” sound.

2

Maybe [name_f]Maegan[/name_f]?

3

My name is [name_f]Megan[/name_f] and I pronounce it [name_f]May[/name_f]-gen. I think the prounciation is regional; when I lived in the Midwest, I got a lot more [name_f]Meg[/name_f]-gen.

4

If you want to ensure that pronounciation, I’d go with Maegen. Otherwise you’re going to get [name_f]Megan[/name_f], Mee- gen and [name_f]Mae[/name_f]-gen

5

Maybe [name_f]Meagan[/name_f]?

6

I would stick to the [name_f]Megan[/name_f] spelling since [name_f]Megan[/name_f] can be pronounced as [name_f]May[/name_f]-gen. Spelling a name as Maegen or any other way than [name_f]Megan[/name_f] would just lead to having to correct people when they misspell it as [name_f]Megan[/name_f].

7

Maegen/[name_f]Maegan[/name_f] are totally usable, acceptable spellings to be honest, so I would use them to get [name_f]May[/name_f]-gen. While [name_f]Megan[/name_f] can also be [name_f]May[/name_f]-gen, it’s likely to be corrected often. I also think Meighan could work too.

I would spell it [name_f]Maegan[/name_f]

9

Maybe Maegen/[name_f]Maegan[/name_f]

Where I live, [name_f]Megan[/name_f] is pronounced like may-gen.
