[Opinions] Re: Mary
in reply to a message by Martha
Mary has a lovely sound and it's very sweet. Unfortunately, it doesn't really inspire me much due to rampant use throughout history. I've considered this name myself but only as a double name where I'd use both names (Mary Katherine, Mary Isobel, Mary Elizabeth, Mary Eleanor, Mary Alexandra). Most likely, I'd use a short form of one name (Mary Kate, Mary Bel, Mary Beth, Mary Elle, Mary Alex).
Having said that, I'd love to meet a little girl named Mary. It really is a pretty name.
Re: a nonreligious person using Mary, it's so very common that I don't think most people would think twice about it.
