[Opinions] Marie
Do you think this has chances of making a comeback or will its popularity as a middle name hold it back? I really like it and it seems fresh to me. But I can see how others might find it boring because everyone probably knows at least five people or so with Marie as their middle name. In the 80s and earlier it was definitely a very common middle name but I think people hardly ever use it as a middle name today because they think of it as boring and dated and therefore use Grace, Rose or Elizabeth instead. I haven't come upon anyone with it as a middle name who is younger than 15. I even like it as a middle name. I would use Elise as it is honoring and First Name Marie Elise sounds pretty nice. I have a friend name Marie but she lives in Switzerland and pronounces it MAH-ree which is the common pronunciation there so it wouldn't be an issue.I would pronounce it the English way, but I also like Mari pronounced as MAH-ree. Which do you prefer? Marie or Mari?What do you think of Marie?
