I think [name_f]Maria[/name_f] is beautiful. I used to find it a little too common, but its classic loveliness has grown on me. I’d love to come across a little [name_f]Maria[/name_f]!

[name_f]My[/name_f] favorite nicknames for [name_f]Maria[/name_f] are probably [name_f]Mar[/name_f] and [name_f]Mari[/name_f]. Some other ideas are [name_f]Mia[/name_f], [name_f]Mimi[/name_f], [name_f]Mika[/name_f], [name_f]Ria[/name_f], [name_m]Ari[/name_m], and [name_f]Aria[/name_f]!

I absolutely love the name [name_f]Maria[/name_f]! It’s my favorite [name_f]Marian[/name_f] name, it’s so gorgeous and elegant!
Possible nicknames are Mari/Mary, [name_f]Ria[/name_f], [name_f]Mia[/name_f], and [name_f]Mimi[/name_f]!

I like it. It does remind me of several 60+ yr olds that I know with the name but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s very on trend, yet still slightly stands out & overall it’s a lovely name.

A lot NN options have already been mentioned so I’ll just say what I would use; [name_f]Mia[/name_f], Rhi & [name_f]Aria[/name_f]

[name_f]Molly[/name_f] is just wow :heart_eyes::heart: so cute!

It’s pretty! I get very strong religious and biblical connotations to it whenever I hear [name_f]Maria[/name_f]. I also have many, many friends with the middle name [name_f]Maria[/name_f]. So I often view it as an overly used middle name. Besides those two associations, it’s a pretty name with a nice feel to it

[name_f]Love[/name_f] it! It’s a classic. I like [name_f]Mimi[/name_f] as a nickname, but you could use any [name_f]Mary[/name_f] nickname. There are so many.

I love [name_f]Maria[/name_f]! [name_f]My[/name_f] favorite nn for her is the Russian [name_f]Masha[/name_f] but I like [name_f]Mia[/name_f] and [name_m]Ari[/name_m] too, or even [name_f]Emmy[/name_f] for something like [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Eloise[/name_f]! I think some find her stereotypical or boring, but I find her lyrical and fascinatingly transcendent of time, national borders, and culture. I would be tickled pink to meet a little [name_f]Maria[/name_f]! I think something like [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Larkspur[/name_f] or [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Primrose[/name_f] or [name_f]Maria[/name_f] [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f] would be gorgeous!

Good luck!

I love [name_f]Maria[/name_f]- she is a stunning, underused classic that would be so fresh and beautiful on a little one.
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite nicknames for her are [name_f]Masha[/name_f] and [name_f]Mar[/name_f] (spanish, meaning ocean)!

It is pretty. I like how it sounds and how it looks. [name_f]Mia[/name_f] or [name_f]Mari[/name_f] would be good nicknames. I like that it works in basically all languages too.

I would really like this name if it wasn’t for a very negative personal association. :cry:
