Mary

Opinions?

I like it. I think it is a very sweet name; classic and underused.

Lovely. I haven't heard of a Mary in years.

I agree it's very sweet! I like it

My favourite

It’s one of my DDs middle names and I choose it as my confirmation name. I like it but it is a very strong family name for me and I love traditional family names.

It used to be number 1 girls' name. Now she will be pretty much unique! I really like it. Beautiful and easy to spell.

(Until it has a full-on revival with Mairees and Mehrés )

I like it and it will never be as ubiquitous as it once was, so it does sound a fresh choice now.

It's a classic and underused for sure. I knew one in primary school who is the only young Mary I've met.

Lovely.

Beautiful, classic and easy to spell and say. She will grow up with some gravitas!

Lovely classic name op

Too religious for me but I guess it's a nice name

Beautiful name. Excellent choice 👌

I know a 16 yo Mary. Lovely and unusual against all the Olivias , Chloes etc

It’s a nice name, quite rare now but I would probably avoid if dd due around Xmas sorry

It's a lovely name

Nice, stands out for not being too try hard to be different. A bit like Lucy, although that seems to be having a revival.

Gorgeous name.

Once ubiquitous here in Ireland, it's rare and refreshing now. I love it.

Never liked it. Very old fashioned and prim. I know granny chic names have made a comeback and I’m not keen on them either eg Violet, Ivy, Elsie, Mabel.

Lovely name - classic and elegant. You could go for something elaborate as a middle name.

I love it!

Classic and lovely name.

It's my middle name and the middle name of every girl I grew up with. Too religious for me but if you're not a Catholic you won't have that same association.

My mother was a Mary and so is DD3!

I find it a bit Catholic personally, not my cup of tea. But it’s unusual and rare these days without being difficult to spell or say, which is something.
