[Opinions] Mabreigh?
NASCAR driver Eric McClure and his wife Miranda welcomed their daughter Mabreigh Elizabeth on March 7th. I have never seen the name Mabreigh and I'm not sure if I like it. How do they pronounce it? What do you guys think?

It's pronounced "neh-VAY-uh".

I'd guess it's pronounced 'may-bree' which actually does sound nice, but Mabreigh is horrible. I like Elizabeth.

attack of the trendiness!Not only is it a treny spelling of Mabry, Mabry is a surname being used on a girl. Hmm. It does have a nice sound though.

To me it sounds a bit like someone mispronouncing the word maybe, like a little kid saying it.

I think the prn. MAY-bree is okay, not to horrible. But the spelling is terrible. I dislike the -eigh ending.

what do i think...awful, horrid, poor child.I strongly dislike made up creations. A name gets half of its charm from its origin and history. Also in 80% of all made up name cases. the name leaves the parents looking illiterate, this is one of those cases.

I wouldn't have known how to pronounce it. But if it's MAY-bree, like someone said, it atleast sounds nice. Looks horrible though.

I think you've never seen Mabreigh because they made it up...
I'm thinking it might be MAY-bree. I think it's a silly name.
