Wdyt? Of Maisie

And What nickname would you use?

SummerMama12 · December 2011

Maisie sounds like it is a nickname. It does not sound like a name for an adult. Can you imagine a Dr. Maisie Jones, Head of Neurosurgery? Neither can I.

It sounds like something you'd name a dog. I guess May, or any spelling variation thereof, could be a nn though.

TheWop · December 2011

It's ok. The name is cutesy enough, it doesn't need a NN IMO.

An ex-co-worker named her daughter Mazy and called her Z for a long time. I think she calls her Mazy now though. I think it's cute, although i do agree that it would be a tougher adult name.

Maisie is a nn for Margaret.

this and I think of maisie mouse.

Not really a fan - kindof already seems like nn in itself.... but I suppose you could use Cici?

SVAQ11 · December 2011

I don't think it's that bad of an adult name, but I do agree that it already sounds like a nn.

I think Maisie is a very cute name, and could transition to adulthood just fine. But I wouldn't worry about a nn as it's pretty short and 'nicknamey' already.

Maisie sounds like a nickname

BackseatDriver · December 2011

Yeah I think it sounds like a nickname already.

Moneypenny424 · December 2011

I agree with others, it sounds like it already IS a nickname. Plus, it reminds me of corn.

Yes This.

HuskerBabyB · December 2011

I first thought of Maisie the Mouse on Nickalodeon(?). Not a fan, sorry.

MrandMrsHull · December 2011

I love it! I wanted to use it but I have a distant but very odd cousin who is named Maise.

imimahoney · December 2011

My friend goes by Maisy... it's only her nn though. Her full name is Ma'ayan (it's Hebrew).

naflmj · December 2011

I think it's a great Scottish name but does sound somewhat like a nn so I don't think it would have one...maybe May but not needed.

LolaBelle515 · December 2011

Well...I know two Maisie's...but they are both dogs. It's a cute name, but you'll run into others with dogs named Maisie, so that's something to know in advance.

MsNessa · December 2011

I've loved it since seeing the movie Uncle Buck as a kid. I don't think it needs a nickname, but if you really want one I think May would be cute.

Maisie is a nickname for Margaret. Why would you need a nickname for Maisie. Her friends will naturally call her Mais (like maze) anyway.

My DHs Grandmother was named Macie. She aged just fine with this name. She also has two great grandchildren named after her. I think it is a nice name and I can see an adult with that name. I know plenty of adults with what people on this board consider 'cutsie' names and they are doing just fine. A name that ends in 'ie' or 'y' does not set the child up for failure in the future.

mommytoconnor · December 2011

The only time I ever heard this name it was for a dairy cow, not a good reference I know, I don't care for it personally.

Jaysway08 · December 2011

It was DH's grandmother's name-- we contemplated using it as a nickname for Margaret, but ended up choosing something else. I think it's cute and will age fine, as a nn or full name.
