Re: Why..
in reply to a message by puck
I haven't noticed that much hate for the name, but I may have missed a post somewhere.
In any case, I thought it was pronounced mih-kai-ah, and I really like it that way.
My-kay-uh is NMS simply because the sound doesn't suit my tastes or match my last name. I would like it better as a middle name (which you have chosen).
If you love it - use it.
If it helps, I happen to really like the names Morraine, Meadow, Wisdom, Whisper and Loveday, which wouldn't get much love here. But, I still like them and know my tastes are not in sync with everyone. I actually like the many opinions on here because it forces me to broaden my perspective on naming.
