Marnie

[abigailwendover]

I'm currently really liking the name Marnie but I can't decide if it sounds too much like a nickname or if it's ok as a stand-alone name. Would be grateful for other people's views! If we had a longer name on the birth certificate do you think Marina or Margaret (or something else) would work better?

The other possible name contender at the moment is Jemima...

I absolutely adore it. No more kids for me but if I was to have a girl this tops my list.

It’s gorgeous! I know an older (late 60’s) Marnie.

I really like it

Love it, either as standalone or short for Marianne?

Love marnie this was on my list If I had a girl

Love it! Definitely go with Marnie. ☺️
It’s perfectly fine as a stand alone name. 💗

My neighbour is a marnie! Best name, love it!!!!

I really like it. Cool and cute at the same time.

It’s quite New York suburb sounding but I think I like it

I love it too. It’s so unlike the other names I used and like but it’s somehow a winner for me.

I love it too. I would go with Marianne and use it as a nickname

Lovely name. Reminds me of the Alfred Hitchcock film with the ice cool blonde Tippi Hedren.

Oh wow! Very positive feedback ❤️ Thanks everyone.

Adore it @abigailwendover one of my favourite names. I'd use it as a name in its own right and not ruin it. It's perfect as it is.

It's nice, but I watched the film the other week and it's incredibly dark! Not sure how I feel about the name now...

Really lovely. Ds3 would have been Marnie, probably with Marina on the bc.

I love it, beautiful name

It's a bit too cutesy/nicknamey for me. Very trendy too so will sound dated in the years to come.

Cute. Also sounds a bit dog like tho

My DS would have been Marnie if he were a girl. I love it.

Marnie has always struck me as a "try-hard" name - not sure why. Margaret is gorgeous.

I love it!

It’s one of my favourite girls names!

Marnie by itself is fine and a lovely name.

Hitchcock film.
Up to you whether to use it on it's own or as short for Marina.

I think it's lovely, I'm actually going to add it to my list for future if I have a girl. The only thing that puts me off though is it reminds me Marnie from geordie shore but that may be because she is from my area so people are more likely to compare it than if you're not from that area. If that makes sense.
