One of my DH's friends just rang to tell us that his girlfriend just gave birth to a 7 pound baby girl. Of course we're thrilled for them, but I'm really not fond of the name they've chosen -
Marlee Jean
I think Jean is a family name. I'm not sure about Marlee, but I think they've chosen to spell it that way because her Dad's name is Lee.
WDYT??

Cute...
There's something very 1930's Dennis the Menace about this name, can't put my finger on it. I'm not overly fond of Marlee, but Jean gives it a kind of charm. Makes me think of freckles and toads caught by the creek and scraped knees.

That's why I like it, too.
It's childish, but in a good way.

I'm not fond of the spelling Marlee; it looks so... phonetic. It looks more lke trying to tell someone how to pronounce the name rather than being the name itself. I would prefer the Marle spelling.
On a more positive note, Jean is one of the only "filler"-esque middle names I don't mind too much.
