What are your thoughts on these?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Set a reminder

I love the name Marcus. That was my favourite cat of all time name.

Thatsmorethanhalf · 17/09/2023 08:50

I also prefer Marc to the other two

peaceinourtime · 17/09/2023 08:42

I’m not a fan of this set of names but Marc with a c is the best of the lot.

I like Marc. I've got a friend called Marc. He was in Starbucks once and when he told them his name was 'Marc with a C' they did actually write Cark on his cup.

Mark.
Also like Marcus.

Love Marcus.
You can't get more 'boring and beige' than Archie and Alfie.

I like Marc better than Mark, feels a bit more modern.

Does your brother not look like this then @Marmite27

Not in my eyes

Theoldwoman · 22/08/2023 01:46

Not much.

Marc is the nicer of the three.

caringcarer · 22/08/2023 00:46

I have a soft spot for Mark. My first boyfriends name.

Miriam44 · 22/08/2023 00:31

I really like Mark, especially paired with Anthony.

Miriam44 · 22/08/2023 00:30

I agree

FutureThroughLensOfThePast · 20/08/2023 16:56

Marcus is nice.

CottonPyjamas · 20/08/2023 16:51

I have a Mark. He didn't really suit it as a baby, but does now. He's a wonderful kid. Clever, kind, handsome, sporty, and loving.

floradora · 20/08/2023 16:50

Another vote for Marco

lljkk · 20/08/2023 16:47

I can't warm to Marcus. Mark is good.

VenusClapTrap · 20/08/2023 16:41

Marcus is a great name. I have a bit of a thing for names ending in ‘us’ though. Marius, Magnus, Julius, Darius etc. All lovely. Ds’s middle name is Antonius, and when his full name is called out it sounds very stately.

Who an earth is naming their new born babies Mark. Awful name. Sounds like Bark.

Marc sounds the same with a slightly wet spelling.
Marcus is slightly better but sounds like mucus. Out of all the wonderful names out there I struggle to comprehend how someone in this day and age thought 'yes, Mark! That's the one!'

Sounds like bark? Well a lot of names "sound like" something don't they? Louis/pooey; Jade/spade; etc

Mark is the one I like.
Mark Darcy comes to mind.

LilyLemonade · 20/08/2023 15:30

Love Marcus.

It’s refreshing to see these old classics coming back.
