Linnea seems a bit too Scandinavian to go with Maeve, but it could work, imo. Both are uncommon but recognizable, feminine and sweet. :)

How do you pronounce Linnea? I had a friend named Lynnea, and she pronounced it Lin-nay. Is it the same?

If you're going for the Scandinavian pronounciation it's more like LiNNea. But the E sounds a bit different, I don't know/think the sound exists in the English language...

My first thought was Corbin, but I'm not sure why.

I've heard it pronounced like lynn-NAE or li-NAE-ah.
