Which middle name for Maeve?

General Name Discussion
1

We are having a girl. We love the name [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] for her bc my husband is Irish. We are stuck between two middle names. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] (my middle name) or [name_f]Elise[/name_f] (a form of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and one of most popular names in Norway- where my family comes from). Which do you like better? [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]? Pros and cons to either?

I think I like [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] a bit better. [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] runs on when I say it aloud - [name_f]Mave[/name_f] a lease. [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Eliza[/name_f]?

I think [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] sounds best.

When are you due? We are also having a girl and naming her [name_f]Mave[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Ann[/name_f]!

Not a fan of [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], but I love [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]! [name_f]Elise[/name_f] seems a bit prissy and fussy to me. [name_f]Lise[/name_f] or [name_f]Alise[/name_f] are lovely, though.

I like [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] more : ) Have you considered [name_f]Elisabet[/name_f] or [name_f]Elisabeta[/name_f]/[name_f]Elisaveta[/name_f]? I love those variants <3

[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] sounds best with [name_f]Maeve[/name_f]!

Since it’s a middle you could play around a bit :slight_smile: I like [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] of your choices. But you could also play with

[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Lisbet[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabet[/name_f]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]

[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] is our favorite too! ([name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f])
I like [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] best. Saying “[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]” out loud and quickly is a little too similar to “marvelous” hahaha, that could be a good thing though!! :slight_smile:

[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is lovely, I think the length of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] gives [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] some balance.

[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] is my favorite name! My mother’s middle name, and one of mine, is [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. If this baby is a girl, and I get my way, she’ll be [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]. So that’s my vote!
