[Opinions] Maria is totally awesome.

I makes me angry that "Maria"'s are stereotypically Hispanic women, when in fact this name has run in my (Irish) family for generations. I prefer it over the boring Mary and overused Marie, and am generally suprised that there are very few white, black and asian women bearing this name. The Bronte sisters' mother was Maria, as was one of the girl's herself, who died relatively young.

I love Maria. As for the combos, the only names I generally love are Maria and Claudia (despite it's meaning), but I like Juniper, Pearl, Victoria and June.

Maria Rosalind
Maria Elaine
Maria Ariel or Ariella
Maria Delphine
Maria Violetta
Maria Carlotta
Maria Susannah
Maria Helene
Maria Lisette
Maria Cecilia
Maria Bethany
Maria Patricia
Maria Viviana
Maria Celestine or Celestina

I like these combos, and I hope you do too.

Thank you! Maria Celestine sounds lovely, though it is perhaps a little heavy-handed on religious references for me :-) Maria Carlotta is lovely too - Charles and Charlotte are family names for me, so it could work out in many ways! Maria Bethany is also very sweet.
