[Opinions] Danika, Nancy, and May
Three names I’ve been thinking of, one I like and two are family names.
What do you think of them?

I like Danika to some degree, May is pretty nice (Though I personally prefer the variant of 'Mae' way more) and I completely don't care for Nancy. It's a completely dated name that needs to permanently retire.

I think Danika would be such a beautiful middle name! Madison Danika, or paired with a simple middle name! Danika Rose Danika Leigh,
I love love love the name Nancy. A modern twist would be Nanci. But i love both spellings! Nancy Elise, Nancy Lynn, Nancy Ann, Nancy Kiara
May is beautiful. Would use it as a middle name. Kendra May, Denise May.
I think you could mix and match too! Nancy May, Nancy Danika.
Danika May.
Much love

I like Danica with this spelling. It's unexpected but not unheard of.Nancy is too whiny for me.May is pretty but boring. I'd prefer it as a nickname for something longer.

Danika is okay. It's very tied to Danica Patrick for me with her pronunciation which is a neutral association I suppose. I also had a teacher in high school da-NEEK-ah and she was not a particularly kind lady. So that pronunciation makes me bristle. I also don't like the -eek or -ick either way.Nancy is pretty cute. It seems like kind of an every personality friendly name. Nan is a sweet nickname if the person is on the quieter side.I absolutely adore May. It was my grandmother's middle name and I would use it as a first name for a daughter in a heartbeat. It feels a little bland in the middle in the sense that it's practically guaranteed to sound good so it can quickly become filler.

I like May, Danika is ok but feels a bit odd in English, I don’t really like Nancy that much, it feels very dated.

May is a family name for me, too. I like it as a mn, and I'm very glad that where I live it doesn't ever become Mae. Not that I've ever seen, anyway.I've met a couple of Danika people. It's an OK name I suppose, but I love Daniel for a boy so I'd never consider it.Nancy is an old favourite. I think of it more as a fn in its own right than as a nn for Anne. And, given enough daughters and a slightly different husband, I'd gladly use it.

Danika is nms, never really liked it. Nancy and May on the other hand are beautiful and classic and I love both.

I don't care for Danika, it just doesn't sound nice to me. Nancy is okay.May is a beauty and I'd happily use it myself. It was the first name I ever loved.
