[Opinions] Re: Mara
in reply to a message by guru
I like Mara. It's not an intimidating name to me - it's sweet and serious. I say mar-a (first syllable rhymes with car) exclusively. I think I've only met one, a little girl, and in her case it is a nickname for Margaret, which I like - that way the "bitter" meaning is avoided.I tried to convince my husband of Mara as a nickname for Margaret (which I am always trying to get him to like) but evidently there are Central American gangs called maras and he doesn't like that association.
