HelpRe: Help choosing from our shortlist??

Maeve isn't terrible but it's kind of old-ladyish to me. It's hard to imagine a young woman, much less a baby, with that name.
I've never liked Zoe, even when I was a child, though I can't put my finger on what I dislike about it.
Tamsin is spunky and unusual. She could go by Tam or Tammy, as well. Tamsin gets my vote.
Mackenzie does nothing for me, but it's #62 on the US's most popular baby name list, so clearly heaps of people like it. Don't be afraid to use it if it's your fave.

But I guess if you knew a baby named Maeve your idea of it would change? I dunno, we've just loved that name for ages so we'll use it.
We'd use Tam or Tamsi as nicknames if we wanted a nickname for Tamsin because neither of us like Tammy much. Tamsin is kind of shifting to the top for me now.
Mackenzie isn't my fav, it's my boyfriend's. Not the same thing lol! I showed him some of the things people said about it and he kinda gets my point. I dunno what the ranking of Mackenzie is here.

Yeah, I suppose if I met a baby Maeve my opinion would change, but it's hard to imagine. :)
Tamsi (though I would sp it Tamsy or Tamsie) is a really adorable nn. I can't believe it didn't occur to me.
