Is Mae Ann too hard to say?

I really like both and they're both family names. I'm thinking about using it as a middle name but DH likes it as a first name....

    It could be a mouth-full for some. I don't mind it.

    I don't like it... what about Annie Mae?  That's a little easier on the lips.

    It doesn't flow, but how many times do you say them together?

    I usually see Mae as a middle name, I assume its because it is strong pronunciation.

    It's easy to say. Sounds kinda hillbilly though? Maybe that is just me.

    That sounds like Fannie Mae (mortgages) or Fanny May (candy).

    Sorry...I tried it out a few times and yes - it's too tough to say together like that.

    When I say it fast - as if I was calling her from across the playground - it sounds like the noise I make when I'm whining to my DH about something. 

    Instead of just saying 'man!' I say maaaaeeeeaaaaaan!

    I love the name "Mae". It might be better used as a middle name.

    I think it runs together and starts sounding like megan.

    Maybe Ann Mae
