Marion?

[MinecraftWonder]

What do you think?

Classic and pretty or just terribly old fashioned?

Love it. Was my second choice for DD2.

Really horrible.

Really don't like it.

Nope sorry.

Love it.

I like it a lot.

I prefer Marianne.

I love it

I also prefer Marianne, and I like the spelling Marian better than Marion.

I prefer Marianne. Marion imo is old fashioned but given Sylvia and Daphne receive positive comments on Mn I expect on balance the comments you receive here will be positive

Please don't!

Nothing wrong with it. Not fashionable at the moment, but who cares. It could be quite chic at the moment I suppose, due to French film star, Marion Cotillard.

Have to say I think I prefer Marian though. And Marianne is gorgeous of course.

I think it would get misspelled all the time

Love it.

Gorgeous name.

Happily not fashionable, but I think it will be within a few years.

Pretty - a bit old fashioned but then, old fashioned names are in.
Maren/Marin is quite similar?

I do prefer Marian though.

Awful - Marianne is lovely though!

It's my MILs name so I've sometimes thought it might end up as mn for a future dd.
I think if that were the case I'd insist on altering it to Marianne though, which I just think is so pretty and more modern then Marion, which sounds a little harsh/abrupt IMO. I think Marian is nicer too.

Love it.

Hate Marian/Marianne.

Marion Cunningham was in Happy Days

I like it but it's a new Thomas the Tank Engine character.

I like it. My best friend's mum was called it, but then so is one of SJP's twins.

I read your title as Marlon for a boy - I was going to say - love it!

But Marion, - no, hideous - sorry

Heads off to spec savers

Lovely lovely name, spelled Marion or Marian.

Marianne has the emphasis on the "-anne" bit, rather than the "Ma-", and feels a different name.

Lovely

It's very grumpy... Quite like Marianne though!

Sigh, it's frumpy not grumpy. Time for bed...
