Marianne

[PawPatrolMakesMeDrink]

Thoughts please?

Was on my list so I clearly like it!

Lovely!

My favourite name.

A neonatal nurse that looked after my baby was called marianne and she was great!

I adore it.

I love this name.

Sense and sensibility

Mariette nice too.

I went to school with one :). I prefer Anneliese or Anika for longer forms of Anne but it's okay.

Love the name Marianne!

Marianne Faithful is actually 'Marion' and it's apparently what Mick Jagger always and still calls her.

Beautiful, sophisticated European name, not too common over here. Jane Austen /Rolling Stones /Leonard Cohen are the associations that come to mind. Oh and the classic children's book 'Marianne Dreams'.

Love it. I teach one and she goes by Mimi.

I love it. DH pronounces it as "Marian" not "marry-anne" so unfortunately we ditched it

We’re pretty much set on it now I think.
Watch it be a boy and I have no clue about boys names I like!

Douberry couldn't you have re-educated him?

Lovely - very underused and I could never fathom why....

Beautiful I know an 11 year old Marianne and she is lovely xx

I love Marianne (it was on my list). How much will it annoy you if someone pronounces it Mary-Anne or Marion? Because someone will.

I have a Marianne (toddler age). It's a beautiful name IMO.
Some people do struggle to pronounce it correctly. She gets Mary Anne sometimes but in truth it's not very often.
She also occasionally gets Anne Marie which is slightly more baffling!

I don’t think mispronunciation will annoy me, I’ll just correct and move on. My surname is often mistaken for my first name and I can’t say that bothers me.

Adore it. I wanted Marianne for my daughter but we are going with something else instead as OH didn't like it

I think it's very pretty yet strong.

I have a cousin called mary anne I also know a marie, maria, maisie and a mari.
