Any opinions?

I love both the short and long versions and think it's quite pretty and unusual

I love the name Marianne, and wanted to use it for DD, but I have a cousin called Maryanne adn knew everyone would get it wrong. Marianne is the song that me and DH had for our first dance at our wedding, it's by the goth band Sisters of Mercy. I comprimised and called DD Alice, which is also by the Sisters of Mercy.

Marianne is the best name in the world ever. Annie for short is alright if you like that sort of thing.:)
