Mariette nice too.

Hippopotas · 08/05/2020 23:45

Sense and sensibility

LuxLuxLux84 · 08/05/2020 23:41

I love this name.

Tillygetsit · 08/05/2020 23:39

I adore it.

ilovepuggies · 08/05/2020 22:06

A neonatal nurse that looked after my baby was called marianne and she was great!

RosesandIris · 08/05/2020 22:05

My favourite name.

123Dancewithme · 08/05/2020 22:03

Lovely!

whatausername · 08/05/2020 21:24

Was on my list so I clearly like it!

Thefaceofboe · 08/05/2020 21:23

I automatically presumed you’d watched normal people too. I find it a bit boring tbh

Sunny345H · 08/05/2020 21:07

Don't love it but its nice. I prefer Mariona

pinkpinecone · 08/05/2020 21:06

Did you just watch normal people, OP? As I hadn't heard it in ages before watching that. I did ponder over if I liked it, still can't decide. It's certainly not a bad name.

Well. I think that the name chosen if babe is a girl!
Thank you all!

It’s nice, the marianne I know often gets ‘Annie’ as a nickname which I like as well.

helpmum2003 · 08/05/2020 20:49

Love it.

DramaAlpaca · 08/05/2020 20:48

It's one of my favourite names.

Orphlids · 08/05/2020 20:47

Absolutely love it. I am a big Cohen fan though. Like PPs have said, everyone knows it the name, but it’s really unusual. Hardly any babies named Marianne in recent years. I would choose it, but our surname ends with an ‘an’ so it doesn’t work.

peperethecat · 08/05/2020 20:41

I like it a lot.

ANoiseAnnoys · 08/05/2020 20:41

I LOVE it. And Marianne Faithfull was/is super super cool. (Uber rock chick, 60’s beatnik babe/it girl and mick jaggers girlfriend for those who don’t know her)!

Chinesetakeawaay · 08/05/2020 20:39

I think it's lovely. It was almost dd's name but we chose something else in the end. There's a Marianne at her school though which is strange as it's pretty uncommon.

Edenember · 08/05/2020 19:14

@PawPatrolMakesMeDrink pretty and everyone knows it but not common.

seriousandloyal · 08/05/2020 18:45

Adore this name!

Whatsyourflava · 08/05/2020 18:39

Love

Shmithecat2 · 08/05/2020 18:39

Love it.

OhTheRoses · 08/05/2020 18:38

One of the nicest women I know is called Marianne.

notangelinajolie · 08/05/2020 18:36

I like it.
