I am a bit odd in that I have issues with siblings having names that start or end in similar sounds. For example, Ashley & Wesley or Braden & Bradley. Therefore, MaRY & RoRY bother me a bit. But both are very nice names, and not overly cutesy together, and at least they don't rhyme. :b I adore Rory, and so nice to see in used on boys. :)
ETA: How about using a variant of Mary or using it with a nn?
Suggestions...
Marianne/Marianna
Mariel
Mara
Miriam
Mary nn Molly, Maisie, Mamie
