Re: Mary
in reply to a message by KK
I like it very much: if I hadn't been me, I'd have felt comfortable being Mary in spite of its drop in usage. It's a family name - of course it is! Everyone in the English-speaking world has probably got a Mary or two on their family tree. I used it as a mn for my daughter and it worked well.

Not if you’re Jewish.
Have you included Miriam?
Oh, I didn't!
