Re: Marian and Maria
in reply to a message by la-petite-rachel
My association with Marian was Maid Marian. I find it sweet and literary without being frilly. Maria on the other hand is a bit more vanilla. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but I think she can handle a bit more fun.
I love your combos. A few of them make me wish I had a more varied heritage or lived in a diverse area. These really stood out to me:
Maria Violetta
Maria Cecilia
Maria Josephine
Maria Felicity
Maria Genevieve
Maria Fiona - I contemplated this one and said no. You've changed my mind, I think.
Maria Hannah
Maria Séraphine
Maria Emmanuelle
Maria Françoise - I adore Françoise, and the thought of a little Maria-Françoise makes me giddy.
Maria Stella
Maria Jessamine
Maria Raphaëlle
Maria Gerogiana
Maria Mélisande
Maria Pearl - The simplest of your suggested combos, but still very sweet.
Thank you so much. I really enjoyed your list and it had quite a few interesting ideas.
