Is [name_f]Mae[/name_f] too far of a stretch to nickname a [name_f]Maren[/name_f]/[name_f]Marin[/name_f]?
I met a little girl named [name_f]Marin[/name_f] once and have liked it ever since but also want to honor a [name_f]Mae[/name_f] in my family.
I think it works if you use the “[name_f]Maren[/name_f]” spelling. I knew a girl in high school whose names was [name_f]Meagan[/name_f] and she went by [name_f]Mae[/name_f], so I don’t think it’s a stretch at all.
[name_f]Maren[/name_f]'s short enough I don’t think it needs shortening. I like [name_f]Maren[/name_f], but I don’t think [name_f]Mae[/name_f] works as a nickname. Mare or Ren are the only nicknames that come to mind.
I think it works perfectly fine:)
