I prefer it as a nickname. Perhaps if you were to name her May (Mae) or Mabel, you could call her Maisie but she'd still have a more adult name to use if she felt the need to. And if she didn't, then fine, she could be just Maisie all her life, but I feel the same about just about all nicknames-as-full-names: rather give a child more options than fewer. You lose nothing, and the child might well gain.
