I love
Marie as a first name and I don't know why.
My hypothesis as to why I've grown so attached: it's sweet and snappy, old and underused in the first name spot, and there's no end to the songs I could sing her.
The problem with
Marie is that I have yet to find something that feels right with it.
Marie Honorah or
Marie Claudette would honour family and all that jazz, but they lack a certain pizzazz. I don't want to overwhelm the name, but I want to find some combos that're spectacularly...odd, perhaps, or just striking in a not-overly-high-class and not-typical kind of way, if you know what I mean.
Marie Ophelie, for example, isn't what I want--nothing too hoity-toity. And
Marie Shaelan doesn't cut it either; it needs to be something with
snap.
What I've come up with thus far:
Marie DesdemonaMarie Karana
Marie Margalo
Marie Orphea (or-FAY-ah)
Marie Romelza
Marie Zuleika
I don't think I've managed to describe what I want well enough. It's one of those cases in which the right combo is gonna be like pornography: I'll know it when I see it. :D Any ideas? Thoughts on what I've got?
Oh, yeah, and this:
Winslow Marcellus. Too wussy? Too Wynton Marsalis? I've gotta know.
Array (rather liking
Marie Karana)
...And then he said, "You're independent, aren't you?"
"Yes," said Laura.
A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.
