Help[Opinions] Re: Thoughts on "Marita"
in reply to a message by Jason Malcolm
Well, I don't particularly care for Mary or Rita. And to be honest, I don't care for Marita at all... It sounds sort of like somebody with a few under their belt, asking for another " marrrr-itaaa"...
(I know, I know, most people aren't asking for another margarita when they are drunk.)
It's just the image that popped into my mind when I read the name.
Anyways, so, nah. It's nms and I just don't really like it much. But I wouldn't go so far as to say its a terrible ugly name. That is reserved for (in my opinion!) Gertrude, Martha, Larry or Horace...

I think Martha belongs in that class. I never saw the prettiness in that name, TBH. It sounds so heavy and clunky to me.

Well, everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but the general opinion is that it's a beautiful name. I think it's got a fullness to it rather than a clunkiness; a richness :).

Okay...
...it sounds to me like you're saying, in so many words, "You are entitled to your opinion, but you should know it is the incorrect one." Maybe that's not what you mean, but that's what it sounds like. How can you know what the general opinion of Martha is? A committee didn't meet without me and decide that Martha is a beautiful name. Weird.

Lol, I was just kidding around, you don't have to be sorry! :) I feel really bad! Naw, I really like you.
I know Martha isn't to everyone's taste, I just didn't think it was in the same category as the other names in that list! It is a bit of an old lady name, but it's actually quite popular on little girls in England, at least where I live.
Anyway, I think you're lovely, and you have great taste in names (always wanted to tell you that lol) xx

I agree. Martha is old fashioned, but is not clunky like some of the other names she mentioned. I think it's lovely.
