Find out below why this name is so special and how to surprise Maija on her name day. 🌼
🌿 Origin of the Maya name
The word May is closely associated with spring and fertility. It comes from the Latin word Maius , which means the month of May – a time of flowering and rebirth. The word is also associated with the Roman goddess of fertility Maia, who symbolizes nature, life, and femininity.
The name Maija also came to Latvia through the Russian language ( Майя ) and has become one of the most popular female names, especially in the spring months. Currently, about 6,300 women in Latvia bear this name, and it is also found in other European countries.
May - meaning and characteristics of the word
Gentle as a spring breeze 🌸, lyrical as a song by the fireplace 🎶, accomplished as a list before a trip ✈️, and... yes, maybe even a little shy 🙈. She doesn't always get what she wants - but, oh my, she tries as if it were the final of the Olympics! 🥇
Talented down to the last cell – if there is a wrong path somewhere, Maija has already turned it into a path to the Moon 🚀🌕. Sophisticated? Definitely. The verb "to scratch" is synonymous with "to notice details" for her 👀✨
Real pirouettes are happening in her soul – ballet and open-air jazz at the same time 🩰🎷. Fantasy? So expressive that even Google often gets confused about what she's really looking for 🤯🔍. And the ability to find contact with any person? Well, if Maija started a conversation with a refrigerator, it would start to heat up 🧊🔥
Simply put – Maija is like a Netflix marathon for the soul: a little drama, a lot of love and always – an unexpected plot 🍿💫
