It's a pretty name, but people would be horrible to a child named Melania, even though Monica, Laura, and Barbara are still loved names.

I love this name, but I wouldn’t use it because of Melania Trump. I would love to meet someone outside of the U.S. with this name though.

I don't like the association with Trump, however, I will admit that this name is quite pretty. I prefer it to Melanie, which reminds me too much of watermelons; a fruit I absolutely hate.

It’s pretty; however, the Melania Trump association is what people will think about when they see a girl with this name.

The difference between Melania and Hillary, Michelle, Laura or anything like that is those are common enough English names for women born in those generations and Melania doesn't have many other associations. This name is pretty though.

Personally, I love this name. I actually want to name my daughter after Melania Trump. She is a gracious, beautiful woman, not to mention a fantastic First Lady. All these negative comments towards her make me sick. It's a much nicer name than Michelle.

Here in Italy Melania isn't a common name. I think this name looks better on a newborn with darker skin (since it's the meaning of the name). I think it's an easy name to pronounce.

Everyone is thinking of our current First Lady when this name is heard. Although I don't hate Melania Trump, I feel extremely bad for her. I hope the association will fade; this name is quite alright, although I much prefer Melanie.

Here we go again! Just because Donald Trump's wife has this name, everyone wants to hate it! How ridiculous!

I am an apolitical individual and I think this name is quite beautiful and has an exotic flair to it that I find quite charming and mysterious. I would definitely select this name for my child as the political association will fade by the time the child enters elementary school, and it will not be a problem by then.

I like the name, however naming your child after a sitting first lady in this polarized political climate means that 70% of people are going to scoff at it. Better wait until the association fades. I wanted to name our first daughter Sasha but we passed, just because I don't want my kid mixed up with any political situation.

The first lady ruins this for me for some reason. Because her relationship with her husband seems fake, so does this name.

In the United States this name has almost become synonymous with Melania Trump, wife of presidential candidate Donald Trump - especially now, as it's election season (when will it END?!?!). I'm not exactly a huge fan of Melania Trump, but there have certainly been worse women in the public eye.
That aside, I do think Melania is a lovely name - and I'm not normally crazy about names that begin with "Mel-" (don't like Melanie or Melissa).

I think I prefer this to the English form Melanie. I know several Melania's here in Brazil. Unfortunately, in English-speaking countries most people will immediately associate this name with Donald Trump's wife. (Nothing against Trump's wife; I can't stand Trump himself.)
