Why Maya Rose?

If it was a little boy, his name would have been Alexander Logan Smith; however, since we are being blessed with a little girl, Maya Rose seemed most appropriate. It's simple, easy to spell, doesn't offend any family member because we have chosen no family members' names, and is exotic. Maya is a name found in Hindi, as well as English, and Hebrew.
According to http://www.babynamesworld.com/meaning_of_Maya.html:
Maya is mostly taken in English-speaking countries as a variant of the mythological name Maia, usage influenced by the common English word and name "May". It is also the Spanish form of the name, and a common pet form of Amalia. The name occurs in Japanese as well, with various combinations of meaning, such as for example truth and everlasting."Maya;" means "illusion" or "enchantment" in Sanskrit. Maya is the phenomenal world of separate objects and people, which creates for some the illusion that it is the only reality. In Hindu mythology, Maya is the name of the goddess Devi, the consort of Shiva. In Buddhist myth, Queen Maya was the birth mother of the historical Buddha. It is also used on males. Maya is also a modern Hebrew name, probably also a variant of Greek Maia, but maybe related to Maayan (spring) and to the Aramaic word for “water”. This name can also be given in reference to a pre-Columbian civilization in southern Mexico and Latin America.
In choosing names for our little girl, we also put on our middle school student hats and what we decided that the worst fun that kids could make of Maya's name was "Maya, Maya, pants on fire!"
So, Maya Rose it is...and from what I've seen of her, I think the name suits her just fine.
