1)What do you think of the name overall
2)Would it go well with Piper, Shannen, and/or Olivia
3)What middle names would fit?

Thanks!

1. I really dislike it, because I always think of a boat dock.
2. I think it works alright with those names.
3. Sorry, I don't like it enough to suggest anything.

1) I think it's a very cute name!
2) It would only fit with Olivia out of those three names.
3) Marina Diane pops into mind.

1. Marina is pretty name, though I much prefer Maria, personally.

2. As sibling names, I think Marina & Olivia are lovely. Shannen & Piper don't seem classic in the way that Marina & Olivia do. As middle names, I think Marina Olivia would make the nicest combo, though I'm not too fond of the "a" ending in both names. I love Olivia by the way :-)

3. Marina Josette, Marina Elisabeth, Marina Celeste, Marina Caroline, Marina Juliet, Marina Kathryn, Marina Lillian, Marina Lacey, Marina Lucy, Marina Rachel

1. I madly adore it.
2. It would go well with Olivia. Piper and Shannon/Shannen have a different feel to them.
3. My favorite Marina combo is Marina Charlotte. I also like Marina Juliet and Marina Christiane.

Edited to inquire if Olivia, Piper or Shannen are mns or sib names. If they're mns, I really don't care for any of them paired with Marina (particularly (sand)Piper = small sea bird).

(Sand) Piper! I knew there was something vaguely marine sounding about Piper. I thought it was being "piped" aboard ship. But sandpiper is much more obvious. I whole heartedly agree.

I love Marina. It has an exotic, Russian feeling for me. The nn Marnie is cute, too.

The only name you list that has the same style to me is Olivia. Marina Olivia is OK, but how about:

Marina Zoe (Russian comes from Greek, so these mesh well stylistically to me.)
Marina Sophie
Marina Alexandra
Marina Helen / Elena
Marina Simone
Marina Lisette
Marina Colette
Marina Liv
Marina Lilith

Good luck!
