Marla is a hauntingly beautiful name I will never forget. The first woman my age that I had ever developed deep, strong feelings for had the given names Marla Lynn, quite befitting her exquisite beauty and intelligence.

Truly underappreciated name. It's elegant, soft, and pleasant to say. I've only met 3 people with this name; two in their 40s/50s and one teenager, so to me it feels like an older name but I could picture any age with this name.

It just looks like an elaboration of Mary. I dislike the -la ending. It makes this name seem somewhat forced and tacky.

Marla is a girl who was able to paint "masterpieces" at the ages of 1 and 2. She's now 7. The media questions whether or not she actually paints them, or if it's just her parents.
