Sure enough, our second daughter was born in May! Reply obedient Feb 21 at 3:00 pm mae, i liked the simplicity it had and sounded, my niece wanted it to be mae-lynn. Reply Maelynn Oct 26 at 6:47 pm I didn’t like the traditional way of spelling it like “Mae”. I ended up spelling her name “Maey Reply Hailey May 1 at 8:21 am I woke up one morning and told my partner, I think her name is Mae! I was about 7 months pregnant and we were having a lot of fun constantly testing out different names for our baby, but when I woke up with this feeling, I knew it was right for her! My grandmother’s middle name was Mae, and I love the strong simplicity of the name. Reply Eseosa AGHEDO Oct 24 at 7:15 am I like Mae say from twig and turtle book and she is so cool, so I decided to write Mae in the book I am writing too but I decided not to copy the name, so I needed female siblings of Mae. But I did not find any female siblings of Mae only male siblings of Mae. But I think Lottie should also be a female sibling of Mae because in Twig and turtle book 6 Lottie was Mae Say’s cousin so I think it would be fair as Lottie to be Mae say’s sister Reply Morgan Sep 25 at 6:13 pm Mae is a family name. It’s short, sweet, and has been around a very long time! Reply Eseosa AGHEDO Oct 24 at 7:40 am It is very sweet for a sweet girl who loves nature. Like Mae say is trying to save our earth and it is sweet of her. Reply Madeleine Aug 29 at 8:50 pm I wanted a timeless name for our baby girl, just like her siblings! I was listening to one of my favorite songs “Lady May” and it felt so right! Her name is Mae, middle name Elouise. Now that she is born, she is soo little miss Mae, fits her perfectly! Reply Janice Coble Jun 8 at 9:02 pm Her name is Mae’Me but that name wasn’t there. Named her after me my middle name is Mae and she looks like me so that’s why I spelled it that way. Reply Candace Sep 13 at 9:48 am It is actually her middle name. Her first name is Bobbie after her late great grandmother. And her middle name is Mae after her late great Aunt. I put them together and call her Bobbie-Mae, or Mae for short. Reply Laura Aug 12 at 7:24 pm I had a family member distant cousin named Mae and like the name. My friend used to use it as my middle name, even though it wasn’t. It just seemed to fit! Reply Morgan Jun 21 at 2:44 pm I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May three years ago so Mae felt like a month of rebirth and redemption. It also means pearl which our precious daughter is, a jewel Reply Emily May 25 at 4:57 am It’s always been my favorite name, since I was really little. I always knew my first daughter would be named Mae. We found out that it can actually be short for Mary, which is another name I like, so we named her Mary and will call her Mae.
