Re: Mary/Marie
in reply to a message by Katie
I like Mary- names with unexpected middle names. One of jeziana's is Mary Zelda, which I think is very interesting. I have a character named Mary Griselda based off that combo. Mary Emma is also interesting to me.
Others:
Mary Jean (conventional but I like it)
Mary Margaret (ditto)
Mary Amelia
Mary Susan (Mary-Sue...eh)
Mary Ellen
Mary Alice (I like this)
Mary Adele
Mary Frances
Mary Joan
Mary Louise
Mary Matilda
Mary Ruth
Mary Victoria (no longer than Mary Elizabeth, which I hear frequently)
Mary Penelope (could be shortened to Mary Nell)
Mary Virginia
I like a lot of Marie double names. Marie-Cecile is great. But really, I think it goes well with most French names.
