Other ds is Milo (tweenies and hot chocolate I know) and I think they both go quite nicely. Which do you prefer?

Magnus

Magnus for me by a county mile. It's a really strong name, whereas I'd worry that as PPs have mentioned, Marley wouldn't age so well as he grew up/it might date. Love Magnus though!

Definitely Magnus.

I have a Magnus and am totally biased but it's way better than Marley!! Marley and Milo is also a bit of a tongue twister if you say them together...

I like Marley but it's too similar to Milo, so vote for Magnus. Or Marius, to sort of combine the two.

Magnus is gorgeous. Marley is not.

I'm in the minority here .. but I LOVE Marley.

Not keen on Magnus.

Magnus 100 million %

Marley and Milo are too similar. Marley also sounds a bit try-hard and I don’t think will age well with him. Magnus works for all ages, interesting but still somehow classic. No comparison.

Magnus! I think Milo & Marley being both 2 syllables, both Ms, both Ls, sound too similar. All good names though!
