Marilyn

[boodleboot]

What an enchanting name doncha think? it conjures up images of beauty and romance to me.....worthy of a revival do you think?

Conjures up images of Marilyn Manson for me ...not the best look

[specialmagiclady]

Also ghastly 80s tranny and general fuckup. Soz...

[boodleboot]

boo. maybe i am just having a 'moment'....

I used it as a middle name as it was my mum's name (she died 20 years ago).

[MamaKaty]

I'm afraid it brings to mind an old lady in a nursing home who wears too much bright make-up! I can't imagine it suiting a child - but each to their own!! Giving it as a middle name is a nice compromise though - it might come back into fashion in years to come and then DD could pass it on again!

would go fantastically with my surname!

outs self

[GrimmaTheNome]

My immediate association is Munroe not Manson and certainly not old ladies.

I rather like it.

[MitchyInge]

it's Monroe not Munroe!

[GrimmaTheNome]

Pardon me, I was getting confused with the name for large peaks.

[TwoHot]

I know a Marilyn, sorry to report that she doesnt like her name and has for many years shortened it to Mandy!

[MamaLazarou]

Is the most beautiful and glamorous name in the world.

I would definitely be going for it had I not already wasted it on a cat.

(Incidentally, TwoHot: Mandy Rice-Davies was also a Marilyn!)

[jauntinthesurf]

It is a beautiful name.

[nappyaddict]

I like it. My first thought was of Marilyn Monroe.
