I'm from Holland and maia is commonly spelled like that here, so for me it is a very natural way to spell the name!
Maia is beautiful. I am from Croatia and my baby girls will be spelled Maja. That's how it's spelled there, and I have no intention of changing it. Propale can just get over it and get used to it. I don't believe we have to conform to please the society we live in.
Maia is cute! My names Lindsey but its spelled Lynsi. Everyone always says how unique it is n that they like it. I do have to repeat myself a few times on how to spell it but it doesn't bother me at all! :)
I like the name Maia, it's very cute! Keep it how you want to spell it and ignore all the negative things :)

if this one is a boy too my husband wants to name him Kai, but spelled Ky. I like Kai better.
I think you should keep it. My name is Brittney but everyone spells it BRITTANY. I just kindly correct it and keep going lol. She's be fine with Maia!!!
I think Maiya is cute...never seen it spelled like that but i am partial to Y's. My sons name is Kai so i think it is phonetically spelled....it will be fine
I haven't seen it spelled like that. But when I saw it I immediately pronounced it like maya. So I say if that's how you want to spell it stick with it! Sounds like people are being difficult, it is fine how it is!
