[Opinions] Maisybelle...?

I know it sounds dumb, but would you name your daughter Maisybelle? Like, one word? I came up with it for a character about a year ago and I think it sounds cute. What about you? Or would you rather use Maisy as just a first name and Belle as the middle?

save or mr resetti will take ur spaghetti

I find them both unpleasant separately and worse when spliced. Avoid!

It sounds really pretty, as I love both names, but not as a smashed together fn. It either needs to be Maisy-Belle or Maisy Belle, as in fn and mn.

I think this name is so nauseating that it would be too much even for a milk cow.

Maisy Belle (first name, middle name) might be passable, but together it sounds like a cow name.

It is so sickly sweet and gross.. I really would feel sorry for a kid with that name. So insanely cutesy.

I'd definitely use them seperately. Maisie Belle is much more tolerable, but still cutesy.

Way too cutesy for me, and honestly somewhat hillbilly-looking. It sounds like something a country hick would name their youngest daughter. Maisy/Maisie Belle is much better, even if it’s not that great itself.

I think it's is a little too much. Maisie Isabel

Yuck, it's so sickly sweet it makes my teeth ache. Maisie Belle is every bit as bad, and I don't like either name on its own either. They're just so milkmaid or puppy.

Maisy by itself is okay, and I'm a little fond of Maybelle, even though I consider it cutesy, but Maisybelle sounds even more cutesy and is way over the top, imo.

But for a character with parents who plausibly might have used an over the top cutesy name, it'd fit.

You couldn’t pay me enough, honestly. I think Maisie Belle is passable but it’s far too cutesy. Margaret Belle “Maisie” would be darling though. Maisybelle might be nice for a cow (and I very much like cows so that’s not an insult, necessarily).

I agree with this. It sounds lovely, but not for a human child.

However for fictional usage I suppose you could go wild
