[Opinions] Re: Maria
in reply to a message by KK
I'm a Maria! I think it's funny when people think it's strongly religious, or assume I'm Latin American - it's a very basic, boring name here, with no religious connotations (my parents are atheists).

I don’t get the “it’s so religious “ thing either, is that an Anglosphere thing? In Italy it’s somewhat fallen out of use but probably because it’s considered overused, and not because it’s considered too religious. If I met a little Maria I’d assume she was named after a grandmother.
