What's the general opinion on the name Martine? I love it but my husband just keeps saying Martin every time I mention it!

I know of one Martine who is 10 now. Go for it, if you really like it, but be prepared for lots of, "Oh that's different! "

You say 'Martine'

I say 'McCutcheon'

All the Martines I know are in their late fifties/sixties, it just sounds middle-aged to me, sorry!

I wouldn't like her to be nicknamed Tina.

I love it too!

Why not go for Martina instead.

I don't like it, I'm sorry.
