[name_f]Margo[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] is beautiful!
I think both are lovely, it just depends on what you’re going for. If you want classic, it’s [name_f]Margo[/name_f] (though I personally prefer the [name_f]Margot[/name_f] spelling). If you want unique, go with [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u].
I really love both so much, but in the end I voted for [name_f]Margo[/name_f] with just a sliiiightly more lovely sound to me. Honestly, both are adorable.
[name_f]Margo[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] is far nicer. [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] feels like get another masculine, trendy name.
They sound very similar, but I think the style is very different. [name_f]Margo[/name_f] is classic, sophisticated, and elegant; [name_f]Marlo[/name_f] (personally I prefer this spelling) is fun, strong, and unusual. [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] adds a surname-y feel. I think the better choice depends on your general taste in names- do you generally prefer more classic/vintage names like [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], [name_u]Theo[/name_u], and [name_f]Grace[/name_f]? Or does your taste tend to be modern, with names like [name_u]Bellamy[/name_u], [name_m]Hayes[/name_m], and [name_f]Carys[/name_f]? Picking the name that goes with you usual style would probably improve the chances of a harmonious sibset if you have more than 1 child.
That said, I don’t think you have to choose- you could use [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]/[name_f]Margarita[/name_f] and let her pick her favorite to use as a nickname!
The only thing [name_f]Margo[/name_f] and [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] have in common is the sound, so obviously that’s what you like about the names. Definitely go for [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] - it’s sounds prettier and smoother. I think [name_f]Margo[/name_f] is a clunky sounding name, despite being a generally nice name.
Not only that, but I dislike when 'G’s and 'J’s are used in quick succession in names. [name_f]Margo[/name_f] [name_u]June[/name_u] as a combination bothers me. [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] [name_u]June[/name_u], though, looks and sounds beautiful.
[name_f]Margo[/name_f]! [name_u]Marlowe[/name_u] is a boys’ name to me.
