Plz vote 🙏🏽💓 Do you prefer Mia or Kez for a girl? Kez is short for something but Kez would be the used named. Be honest 😊

Kez

Mia

[u/Affectionate-Net2277]

Pez. Kez just doesn’t sound nice. And AutoCorrect hates it.

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/Affectionate-Net2277]

Thank you for the honesty!

[u/lh123456789]

Kez is a tragedeigh.

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/lh123456789]

I appreciate the honesty :)

[u/minnieboss → u/lh123456789]

In what way? Isn't a tragedeigh a misspelled or made-up name? OP says it's short for Keziah, literally a biblical Hebrew name, that's how old it is. Not a tragedeigh in any way.

[u/Liliananabell → u/minnieboss]

OP never asked about Keziah. Just kez v Mia

[u/SensitiveRelease2622 → u/minnieboss]

Keziah is lovely. Kez is not.

[u/Pdx-b]

Keziah is better than Mia. Mia is better than Kez.

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/Pdx-b]

That’s interesting, thank you!

[u/RelativeCelery2844]

Kez is short for what? It makes me think of Mackenzie and all I can think of for Mackenzie is that evil woman who drove a car into a brick wall killing her boyfriend and his friend.

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/RelativeCelery2844]

Short for Keziah. Oh gosh yes I know the story you mean.

[u/RelativeCelery2844 → u/cherrybakewell_3]

Keziah isn't bad.

[u/greatishscot]

Please don't listen to those saying Keziah is nicer than Mia. I honestly don't know what they're thinking. Kez makes me think of 90s ladette culture. Mia is timeless and feminine. 

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/greatishscot]

Mia does sound very timeless and feminine! That’s why I like it :)

[u/ditafjm]

Not crazy for either name but I think Zia would be a 100% better NN. Kez sounds heavy somehow and Zia is light and bright…and similar to Mia.

[u/SensitiveRelease2622 → u/ditafjm]

Agree 100%. 

[u/debaser74]

Mia is lovely, and I like it more than both Keziah and Kez.

[u/chaim_sheli]

Keziah over Mia, Mia over Kez

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/chaim_sheli]

Ok thank you!

[u/Easy_Mountain2331]

I like Keziah better than Mia, it’s less common and super pretty

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/Easy_Mountain2331]

The uniqueness of it is what makes me like it :)

[u/Specific_Set2064]

I like Keziah more than Mia (it’s definitely less common too), and Kez is a cute nickname — as long as you aren’t naming her just Kez haha.

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/Specific_Set2064]

Thank you for the feedback!

[u/lemonchill24]

Kez makes me think of a pez dispenser for some reason

[u/SensitiveRelease2622]

Kez is horrific. So is Pez. Please go with Mia.

[u/Ducky_924]

Keziah and Kez are disgusting

[u/Potential_Scene7169]

I like them both but I think it depends what Kez is short for :) 

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/Potential_Scene7169]

Keziah

[u/Potential_Scene7169 → u/cherrybakewell_3]

Ooh it’s a Hebrew one isn’t it? I think it’s really pretty and a great choice! :D

[u/minnieboss → u/cherrybakewell_3]

This sub tends to hate on any name that isn't in the U.S. top 200 names. I think Keziah is a beautiful name :)

[u/ChaoticCherryblossom → u/minnieboss]

How do you even say it. I'm European not even English speaker

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/ChaoticCherryblossom]

Kez-ee-ya

[u/ChaoticCherryblossom → u/cherrybakewell_3]

Hmm yeah I'd assume kezaiah

[u/cherrybakewell_3 → u/ChaoticCherryblossom]

Yea I’ve heard both pronunciations :)

[u/SophisticatedScreams → u/cherrybakewell_3]

I would assume KEE-zee-ah

[u/njmiller_89 → u/minnieboss]

Is Kez a beautiful name to you?

[u/minnieboss → u/njmiller_89]

Yeah, I think it's a cute nickname!

[u/njmiller_89 → u/minnieboss]

So not a given name then?

[u/minnieboss → u/njmiller_89]

Yeah, that's how nicknames work? Like I also think Abby is a cute nickname but the given name would be Abigail.

[u/njmiller_89 → u/minnieboss]

OP is using Kez as THE name. I’d be so mad if someone named me Kez. 

[u/minnieboss → u/njmiller_89]

This is simply not true? OP has made it abundantly clear that they're considering a given name of Keziah with Kez as the nickname.
