Due my seccond baby in july. We are not finding out the gender so thought marley/Marlee would be a nice unisex name, me and partner both like it. We just cant decide on the spelling. First child is called Archie so part of me thinks the spelling Marlee would be nice to both have the E at the end

Marley all the way.

Marlee looks like an obnoxious attempt at an original spelling aka looks misspelled

IzzyD0ra · 26/01/2022 13:35

Marley.

Classica · 26/01/2022 13:36

Marley.

Tal45 · 26/01/2022 13:36

Agree with PP definitely Marley. Marlee looks like you're trying to be 'younique'.

RedCandyApple · 26/01/2022 13:37

Marley

GreenWhiteViolet · 26/01/2022 13:38

Definitely Marley.

MiddleEasternMummy · 26/01/2022 13:38

Please god don't do Marlee !! Looks stupid and your poor child will have to spell it for everyone for the rest of their lives .

Marlee is a feminine name, very nice for a girl. I like it!

deathofastrawberry · 26/01/2022 13:40

Noooo not Marlee it reminds me of Teen Mom 'Aubree' 🤢

Marley is nice

jackstini · 26/01/2022 13:41

Marley rather than Marlee, but makes me think of Marley & Me

Classica · 26/01/2022 13:43

Whenever I see Marlee Matlin's name I think 'why the double E, Marlee's mum and dad?'

Bluemamma · 26/01/2022 13:50

Marley. (Lovely name)
The other spelling is just stupid and pointless. Please don’t.

PinkSyCo · 26/01/2022 14:03

Marley definitely, or if it’s a girl you could name her after Boycie’s wife Marlene.

TheChemicalMother · 26/01/2022 14:10

Marley.

Firebird83 · 26/01/2022 14:45

Marley

BasiliskFace · 26/01/2022 14:48

Marley. It's a lovely name but not one I could ever use as I can't say my Rs and it would sound hideous.

DisforDarkChocolate · 26/01/2022 14:48

Marley is a dog's name, a life time of dog/ movie related questions.

Marlee is redneck and a life time of spelling their name.

PattyPan · 26/01/2022 14:49

Marley is definitely the more recognisable spelling. Marlee will get spelt wrong all the time - my phone just autocorrected it to Marley and then Marlene.

Reggae fans?

StopForAMinute · 26/01/2022 15:05

Marley

FrecklesMalone · 26/01/2022 15:07

Marley, Marley, Marley! I say this with someone whose parents "made up" the spelling of their name. Which is HUGELY embarrassing.

MirabelM · 26/01/2022 15:14

Marlea?
Marleigh?
Just playing devils advocate!

RusholmeRuffian · 26/01/2022 16:56

Marley. Anything other spelling is ludicrous.

TheChemicalMother · 26/01/2022 18:49

Maaaghlii ?

DramaAlpaca · 26/01/2022 18:50

Erm, of the two, Marley.

Lemonweightloss · 26/01/2022 18:52
