Help[Opinions] Re: Middle names for Marie (and one other thought)
in reply to a message by Array
Since you like Marie Karana, maybe you'll like Marie Karenina? I'm really like the alliteration & rhythm of Marie Margalo, too. :o)
Let's see:
Marie Stardust :o)
Marie Kitten (I was really thinking Marie Kitty, but it just didn't sound right)
Marie Bliss
Marie Aster / Astrud / Astrophel
Marie Denim (don't ask me why; I'm really not trying to be flippant. I guess it's the CTP, b/c I was thinking Jean & that you couldn't use it, and then maybe Marie Blue & then blue jeans = denim came to mind...)
Marie Saffronia (just had to suggest it again, lol)
Marie Vesper (a different take on Evening)
Marie Hazelen (the prn you like: hayz-ELL-en)
Marie Vaughan (after Sarah Vaughan and of course, Ralph Vaughan Williams - I'm really liking the flow of this one)
Marie Patrice (like the sing-songiness of this, too: mah-REE pah-TREECE)
Marie Josephine (Josephine Baker)
Marie Ida
Marie Charmian (maybe too hoity-toity for your taste?)
Marie Charmaine (ditto, I like Charmaine a lot)
Marie Merritt
Marie Blanche
Marie Cassidy (too cutesy, maybe?)
Marie Valaida
Marie Delores
Marie Bailey Pearl (after Pearl Bailey)
Marie Delia / Delilah
Marie Bleu Maxine (just like the rhythm)
Marie Fern
Any catch your fancy?
ETA: and I do like Winslow Marcellus, but yes, it is a bit too Wynton Marsalis... :o( Love Winslow & Marcellus individually, though (and Wynton, FWIW, lol).
Edited b/c I misspelled names. ARGH.

Marie Karenina is really pretty--but I couldn't possibly take it as a combo until I finally read Anna Karenina. I'd feel like an imposter up until that point, hehe.
Marie Stardust~ Very snazzy. :)
Marie Kitten~ I'm not sure how I feel about Kitten as a name (one I'll have to give consideration), but it reminds me of one that I loved back in elementary school, Sanura. It was listed in one of my parents' baby name books as being Swahili for "kitten," and cats have always been my favourite animal, so I latched on to it immediately. Marie Sanura? :D
Marie Bliss~ Problem with Bliss is that I equate it more with Ecstasy and Orgasm than with, say, Happy or Blythe. :(
Marie Aster / Astrud / Astrophel~ Hmm...Maybe Marie Astrid? Aster sounds strange when I say it, and Astrophel has sounds like the picture of masculinity to me.
Marie Denim~ I'd be lying if I said I didn't like how this sounded. I'm not sure I'm brave enough to use Denim, but Marie Denim has a very cool sound.
Marie Saffronia~ I really like this.
Marie Vesper~ I used to call my youngest sister, among other things, Vesper, actually! So it's almost like a family name, lol.
Marie Hazelen~ I'd have to spell it Marie Hazellen, I think. :D I really like the sound.
Marie Vaughan~ Oh. Just...oh. I like it.
Marie Patrice~ I'm not sure how I feel about Patrice. It's a bit...dunno what.

I'm so glad I tickled your fancy! :oD
My favorite combos for you (!) are:
Marie Stardust (I think it suits your bohemian personality)
Marie Denim (it's quirky...and fabulous. What's more to say?)
Marie Saffronia (sounds almost elegant, but then it makes you go, "Huh?" I love that!)
Marie Vesper (it's practically a *family* name. Oh, you MUST use it!)
Marie Hazellen (dusty-musty qualities...excellent potential)
Marie Vaughan (I like this one for me, too!)
Marie Blanche (ditto...I like Blanche as well...and Bianca and Blanca...)
Marie Valaida (it's got a homespun, functional folk-art feel to it...as you mentioned) Oh, and here's all I know about Valaida (the name & the person): http://www.jazzhot.bigstep.com/generic13.html
Marie Dolores (ditto w/Hazellen)
You mean *looks left, then right, leans forward, and lowers voice to a whisper* you don't already have Word files for each name? *clears throat and resumes normal speaking volume* Oh, uh, neither do I. Wouldn't even consider it... :oDD
