I’m so glad to hear that! I’ve been throwing it out as a suggestion some lately, it seems like it could have all the factors to make it as a recognized name on here! Such a fun sounding name with great meaning.

My older 2 daughters names are [name_f]Miranda[/name_f] and [name_f]Marina[/name_f]. Both that could be considered mermaid names. I get so many compliments on [name_f]Marina[/name_f]. Not [name_f]Miranda[/name_f] really though. Also, in the beginning not many people could figure out how to pronounce [name_f]Marina[/name_f] when reading it. If I said It they would have no problems.
