I have a little girl, Maya (pronounced May-a) just as you spell it. Either way ie My-a or May-a is lovely. Maya has a long history depending on your nationality thus the different spellings/pronunciations. It has links in many, many cultures. Ignorance reflects on those who don't understand names can be linked into different cultural backgrounds in both expression and spelling. My suggestion would be do some research to see which meanings resonate for you.
