I am leaning toward Makenna because my other daughters middle name begins with an M. But I think Gabrielle is such a pretty name and my husband likes it better. Help us decide. Thanks

I would go with Gabrielle. It has a nice feminine sound at the end. Also alliterative names can get confusing. Especially when the Ma at the beginning of the names are pronounced differently. If you name her Maya Makenna if you have any more kids you'll feel even more obligated to continue tradition and give a middle name that begins with M. If this is a tradition you really want to have, then Makenna is the name to give.

They're all pretty names, I especially like Maya as a first name. Maya Makenna rolls off the tongue a lot better than Maya Gabrielle. That being said, middle names are not really that important, they are rarely used and if you like Gabrielle better, go with it! .

Maya Makenna already sounds like a first and last name...go with Gabrielle!

I like Makenna because when I first read the question I thought it said Maya Gabriel.... so that may happen alot... or it could be just me not ready things thoroughly.

I chose Gabrielle as my baby's middle name :)
But with Maya; Makenna sounds much better!

Gabrielle Ginevra Gabrielle Giselle Gabrielle Genevieve Gabrielle Georgia/Georgiana Gabrielle Glen/Glendolyn There are some options! I did G names with a 'J' sound, because i imagine that flows somewhat more effective useful with Gabrielle than have 2 not hassle-free 'G' names. i'm no longer a brilliant fan of the call Gifti, yet i imagine Gabrielle is amazingly outstanding. Congratulations, and best of success!

I'd go with Gabrielle, it seems as if you like that name best. Let her be different from the others instead of giving her a name similar to theirs. Gabrielle is a very pretty name anyway.

Maya Gabrielle sounds good that way when she gets older she can choose to be called Gabby if she wants.

I would say that you go with Gabrielle for two reasons.
First of all, Maya Makenna rhymes. If that's what you want, then go for it, but I personally wouldn't want that. That is just *grounds* for dumb boys to tease her. I'm not saying she will get teased, it's just possible.
Also, you probably don't want to go with first two names that start with the same two letters. Alliteration. You know that whole "hanah-banana-fe-fi-fo-fana." thing that kids do...well, just imagine what Maya would get if it rhymed and started with the same letters.
Besides, I like Gabrielle. lol.
But it's your choice, and best of luck! =]
