[name]Hi[/name] everyone,

Is [name]Maeve[/name] pronunced “[name]MAY[/name]-VA” like [name]AVA[/name] with a M on it? Or No?

if so is it possible to find a way to “MEE-VA” and what do you think of it IYO?

Agreed - would pronounce it so it rhymes with “save”.

[name]Maeve[/name]- prn [name]MAY[/name]-v
There is a name [name]Maeva[/name] with the prn you seek.

[name]Maeve[/name] is pronounced MAYV.

[name]Maeve[/name] is one syllable

I’d guess “mee-va” was Meeva or Meva

[name]Maeve[/name] rhymes with cave. And yes, I know a [name]Maeve[/name] in real life, and that’s really how it’s pronounced.

[name]Maeve[/name] = MAYV
[name]Maeva[/name] = MAYV-ah

MEE-va I’d guess to be spelled Miva. I’m not really one for made up names, but I like this. It’s spunky. Probably being biased though, I also love [name]Mila[/name], [name]Mina[/name], [name]Mika[/name], and [name]Mira[/name].
