Marlowe?

What do you think?

I like it, though it isn’t my style personally. I think it can be soft and strong at the same time, and [name]Marley[/name] and [name]Lola[/name] are both sweet nicknames for it.

I strongly dislike most names ending in the O sound for girls - it feel very masculine.

I love, love this name. Originally it was on my list for a boy, but after finding that the naming community believed it firmly female I moved it to my girls’ list instead. I think it would work for either.

I don’t mind the name [name]Marlowe[/name] (it has a literary association with writer [name]Christopher[/name] [name]Marlowe[/name]) but I think it’s very trendy. A couple of celebrities have chosen it for both genders so that’s always a red flag for me! I do prefer [name]Margot[/name].

I like it. It’s one of those girls name that’s a little more masculine but is defiantly a lot better than [name]Emerson[/name] or [name]Finley[/name] which are totally boys names to me. I also think [name]Harlow[/name] is lovely.

Not a fan.

I actually like it. I’m usually against Masculine sounding names for girls but I do like [name]Marlowe[/name]! I love [name]Margo[/name] too, and [name]Harlow[/name]!

I like it but prefer [name]Marley[/name].

I actually know a young girl named [name]Marlow[/name]. It seems to fit her well and I’ve never heard her have any problems with it.
It’s definitely unusual, but of all the surname names I don’t mind it.

I think [name]Marlowe[/name] is really cute!

I also like [name]Marlowe[/name]. Very spunky.

[name]Glad[/name] most people seem to like it. :slight_smile: It’s going on my alternative list. I like [name]Margo[/name] as well!

Not my style. I prefer [name]Marley[/name] and [name]Marla[/name].

I think it’s a lovely name. It’s got a very soft quality to it, without being cutesy or ‘weak’.

Sadly though it’s been tainted for me - I’m watching a lot of Prime Suspect at the minute (the original 90s BBC version) and one predominant character, [name]George[/name] [name]Marlow[/name], is a serial killer; that’s pretty much all I think of when I hear it now. [name]Even[/name] now I’m trying to imagine a cute little girl but I just can’t.

[name]Love[/name], love, love! :slight_smile:

I think it’s a gorgeous name. It’s on my list. And [name]Marli[/name] and [name]Lola[/name] are both beautiful nicknames in my opinion.

I love it! I think it’s really sleek and strong. Good taste!

I really like it. I love [name]Harlow[/name] too.

Apparently, a lot of people on here think it’s masculine sounding! It’s all girls name to me, because of the retro [name]Marlo[/name] spelling.

[name]Marlowe[/name], however, seems much more modern and special though.

I love it. I prefer [name]Harlow[/name] personally, but [name]Marlowe[/name] is very sweet.
