Help[Opinions] Mary Emma / Mariemma
The idea of a double-name Mary Emma popped into my head randomly a couple days ago, and now I keep thinking about it. I don't know... I think both names are incredibly boring on their own, but I like the flow of them together. There's also the option of Mariemma (like Mary Ann/Anne vs. Marianne).
WDYT?

Mary Emma is okay. I dislike how Mariemma looks; I think it’s because it makes it seem like an elaboration of Marie,
I like Marianne very much and Mariemma not at all. But then, I don't enjoy Emma, so Mary Emma would also be a no-no.
Very pretty, I like Emma a lot. Mary is pretty, but I prefer Maria.
Makes me think of this place, Maremma in Tuscany.

I don't like Mary Emma, but Mary Emily or Emily Mary are okay.
Mary and Emma are just not go together well in my head- they feel like different flavour of name. Mary is old, but still good, and Emma is modern (at least this is how I see this). Emily is more of all time name, at least it's many decades.
Mariemma looks bad. Maryemma looks better, or Mariema, Maryema. I think of these Mariema looks best- but it may be confused as elaborated Mariam.

Emma is actually old like Mary too. It’s never left the US top 1000, and it was ranked #2 in the 1880s (possibly earlier too but we don’t have that data).

Emma was also in use in the Middle Ages. Its use in English is older than Emily's use.
I kind of fell in love with Mary Emma when I saw it in your poll! As if combining the best of both names.
Mariemma I’d pronounce as Marie Emma
