Re: Marnie
in reply to a message by Billina
I'm undecided. It does have an unassuming retro cuteness to it that appeals to me on an imagery level. But the sound of the name is actually unattractive I think. I know of one whose full name is Marnina. The Marnie on GIRLS is so opposite of how I previously envisioned a bearer of Marnie to be, that it made me like the name more somehow. It previously felt so meaningless and trivial that it was like a silly joke in name form, but Marnie on GIRLS is so prim and serious that the character gave the name Marnie some real weight, IMO.
