It’s nice. I know a Martha Lucy which I always thought was lovely.

I really love this combination

Martha in particular is one of my favourite names

While I don't love Martha I do think it's a good strong name and the combo of Martha Lily works very well.

I want to like Martha, but I'm never quite sure... Maybe it's because of the Handmaid's Tale. That said, it's perfectly nice, and it suits lots of people.

But I think I would always pick Maria over Martha.

I like floral middle names, though.

I love it 🥰 I've always thought Martha was underrated and it goes nice with Lily

I love it

I've never been keen on Martha, sorry - it just feels dowdy to me. Have you considered the similar Mara? I always think that has a lovely, exotic sound. I like Lily though, it's very pretty imo despite its current popularity.

Should add Martha: first name, Lily: middle name. Not a double barrelled first
