Albie or Marley

[georgiaag]

Albie or Marley for a boy, I already have a Freddie.

Just need a little help with some opinions

Marley

Albie

I loveeeeeee both of those names!!!!!

My partner chose Marley and my mother in law chose Albie, my partner wasn’t keen on Albie but is starting to come round and think I love both. How do you choose! Hopefully one will just click when we see him 4 days TIL due date :)

Albie.

Wait until he is born! Then you can see what he suits :) always good to have a couple of options because he might not look like an albie when are you due?

I think I prefer Marley for a girl and albie for a boy :)

Albie

Definitely Alfie. Marley had already had its moment.

*Albie

Albie sounds like a nickname though... maybe OK for a child, but not a high court judge.
Marley? Meh.

Albie.

Marley is a dog name, like the film.

Or a stoner’s lizard’s name.

I love them both so much! Don't usually like old fashioned names like Albie but it's was my dear grandfathers name and we had Marley on our short list for our girl!

Love love love Marley. Doesn't matter if it's associated with a dogs name, my mans dog was called Ben, and people call their kids Milo and Rex!

I'm expecting my DS2 and have loved both of their names for years but if we have a third boy Marley would be a strong contender!!

Also love Marlie for a girl!

My nan's, not man^ 🙄

They are dog or cat names.

Don't like either of them. Agree with LuluJakey1.

Why not call him Albert officially? You can call him Albie as a nickname and as he grows up he has more options for what to call himself - e.g. Albert, Al, Bert, Bertie etc

Marley.

They're both just trendy kid's names, - I struggle to imagine somebody middle-aged and serious with either of those.

Marley does remind me of Bob, so I would assume you were a reggae fan ( isn't there a drug called marley??) Also, are you going to put Albie on the BC (I hope not!). You don't know what sort of man he will become. Would many men want to walk into a professional meeting and introduce themselves as Albie
Call him Albert officially, - he will be a grown-up soon enough, and use Albie as a nickname.

Albie

Albie is a nickname for Albert, which is better than Marley.

I like both names, but would go with Marley.

It would be ridiculously twee to have a Freddie and an Albie.
