Of those choices, Lexi Mae, but they're all about out there for me.

I don't mind Lexi Mae, but I would do a full name like Alexandra or Alexis and call her Lexi for short. You have to think about naming an adult, not just a baby or little girl.

I like Lexi Mae best but personally these names are just NMS.  I prefer more traditional names....

I don't mind either of the first two, I wouldn't choose them, but they're not bad.  I guess I kind of prefer Lexi Mae, but would probably go with a full name and use Lexi as a NN (Alexis, Alexandra, Alexia), because it looks more complete to me that way.

I don't like Malin Kinley because it just looks bizarre, and sounds funny because both names contain L's, and the "-in" sound.  I guess it kind of looks like you took McKinley and put some extra letters in-between.

I hate traditional names and I like Kinley Mae. Lexi Mae to me sounds incomplete so I second Alexis Mae if you'd consider it.

I agree with this. I think Lexi is a cute nickname for Alexandra, Alexa... the other two names are NMS.

Lexi Mae... I just cannot make myself like the whole Kinley/Brinley/Finley trend.
So excited to meet our baby girl in March!

This exactly.  I would feel sorry for a 50 year old woman named Lexi who doesn't at least have the option of going by Alexandra or Alexis.  And I would vote for Alexandra.

Just wanted to compliment your baby girl name :)  We're also going with Lauren Elizabeth (but spelling Elizabeth with a Z instead of an S).  Excellent taste!

EDITED - This is directed to Bliss + Berry, but I accidentally replied without using the quote feature.  Sorry!

Lexi Mae but with a Alexis or Alexandra. Lexi Mae makes me think of Daisy may from Beverly hillbillies

I like Lexi Mae. We almost went with that actually but we chose Alexis Kennedy and calling her Lexi as a nickname

I'm going to agree with what others have said. I think that if you used Alexis or Alexandra and Lexi as a NN then Lexi would be okay. But not as a stand alone.

The rest are NMS.

None are my style.  Please do not take offence, but they all sound a little "made up."  I guess I'd go with Lexi out of all of them.

Can you see these names at the top of a resume in the future? Because if you can't, you need to re-think your options.

Kinley or Lexi

if you're going to go with "Lexi" - give her the long form, such as Alexis, Alexia, Alexandra ETC... otherwise, her NM is going to be "sexy Lexi"
