We are a German-English family and want a name for our boy that work in both languages. Will be a brother for Helena and Fabian. Marius is our front runner but reception has been mixed with people we’ve mentioned it to. Interested in your thoughts, thanks.

I love this name. I am a Les Mis fan though Smile

I think it's fabulous! Certainly has a European vibe, but easy to pronounce and spell. And original without being outlandish.

What negative comments have you had, and who from?

Lovely and perfect for the siblings too

Unusual but not hard to pronounce correctly. Makes me think of Les Miserables, but that's not a bad thing.
