Marion/Marian?

Can't decide if too old fashioned?

Would be in honour of a family member if used.

I quite like them - of the two I prefer Marian. I prefer Miriam actually, although that's probably too different.

Marion is my Mums name, and I love it. She however has always hated it 🤣

It's sweet but I personally prefer Marianne or Marie/Mary.

TheYearOfSmallThings · 04/03/2022 19:24

I'd love to meet a little Marie!

I prefer Marie-Anne pronounced Marianne.

I love it and used Marion as a middle name, also to honour family

Too religious for me.

MissHavishamsMouldyOldCake · 05/03/2022 12:57

Marianne is much nicer (and is also associated with a great song)

I know an 80 year old who is female with the Marion spelling. It is pretty and Marie is a pretty nickname.

For a girl, I would use Marion. I like it.

I am not keen on Marion. I love

Marianne
Marie
