Stuck between two girls names

Wanting peoples opinions and thoughts on these two girls names I can’t decide between.

Ita Vogue

Or

Vogue Marlo
I really love both but am unsure of peoples reactions to the name vogue. Is it too out there?

Ita is usually pronounced EE-ta in Ireland not Eye-ta.

Cosmoa · 22/02/2018 12:25

I like crazy unique names but I just don't like those atall!

Cosmoa · 22/02/2018 12:24

Both are really awful imo!

Thank you elfyn

Sophronia · 22/02/2018 11:30

The only Vogue I know is a Doberman Grin

Oysterbabe · 22/02/2018 11:29

It's a no from me.

Vogue is dreadful.

Surprised by the reaction to Ita- I know a few in Ireland, it's certainly a completely different category of name to vogue here. Much more of a granny name, though a) those are becoming v fashionable and b) I do know one in her thirties.

It's short, easy to pronounce and spell, and assuming the baby will be in Australia may be more commonly known there. I'd go with Ita.

Elfyn · 22/02/2018 00:02

bizzledrizzle Grin very good

Balonz is more Surrey than Sydney

UrsulaPandress · 21/02/2018 23:12

Yeah. They're mad them Aussies.

Just so you all know people, these are names I have found in Australian baby name books.
I haven’t made them up. Maybe us aussies are a little out there /crazy compared to other countries 😊😜

Great name Balonz

MikeUniformMike · 21/02/2018 23:05

Harper Bazaar would be a good alternative or Tatler Porter.

RubyFlint · 21/02/2018 23:05

Y Y Balonz

TallulahBetty · 21/02/2018 23:03

Would you consider Balonz?

Umm honestly neither I’m afraid. If I absolutely had to then Ita

Heliophilous · 21/02/2018 22:56

How is Marlo a girl's name anyway? All your name choices are a little bit strange. I would think again.

brizzledrizzle · 21/02/2018 22:55

School bullies will love Ita , oh look it's a etc etc

I think that vogue is a fad that will pass.

MikeUniformMike · 21/02/2018 22:52

Vogue Harlot is terrific.

BertrandRussell · 21/02/2018 22:46

"The T is silent. As in Harlot"

llangennith · 21/02/2018 22:43

I usually try to be moderate on MN but honestly my first reaction is ARE YOU NUTS?

MikeUniformMike · 21/02/2018 22:42

Should that be Vogue Marlow? I've heard of Vogue Italia.
How about Grazia Croyden? That little modified spelling makes it yoonique.
Harlo is quite cool, especially if you add a t like in Margot.

RubyFlint · 21/02/2018 22:40

Your baby will grow up one day. And want to be taken seriously. There’s a reason you’re questioning yourself. Sorry OP.
