[name_f]Maria[/name_f]! [name_f]Marie[/name_f] is my MN and I’m really not fond of it at all. :frowning: I love the international [name_f]Maria[/name_f], though, and I adore the idea of [name_f]Maria[/name_f] nn [name_f]Mia[/name_f]!

I think [name_f]Marie[/name_f] would be refreshing to see as a first name. It’s so common as a middle but rarely seen as a first. [name_f]Maria[/name_f] is beautiful, but to me it feels a little dated.

I prefer [name_f]Maria[/name_f] but I only ever liked it pronounced in the Spanish accent.

5

I think it depends heavily on the names surrounding it. For example if used as a middle and the first name ends in an a, I would prefer [name_f]Marie[/name_f].

[name_f]Marie[/name_f] by far! Such a classic and sweet name! I really dislike [name_f]Maria[/name_f]. I know way too many with that name.

I go back and forth but I had an Aunt [name_f]Marie[/name_f] so I voted [name_f]Marie[/name_f]

[name_f]Marie[/name_f], you barely ever see this as a first name.

Definitely [name_f]Maria[/name_f]! I think it’s really versatile and much livelier than [name_f]Marie[/name_f] - something about [name_f]Marie[/name_f] feels very quiet and sedate, while [name_f]Maria[/name_f] has much more energy.
