I love Mary. If I had a daughter named Mary, I would probably call her Mary, Maisie, May, and Mary ______ (whatever middle name I chose).

Of those nicknames, my favorite is Marion, but it would be more of a pet name than a nickname since it's actually longer than Mary.

Combos I think lend themselves particularly well to being double names:
Mary Noelle
Mary Grace
Mary Simone
Mary Elise
Mary Violet
Mary Charlotte
Mary Sophia

Maisie and May are cute nicknames for Mary. I never would have thought of Maisie!

Of your combos I like:

(I tend to comment on these from the bottom up, just to note.)

Mary Josephine
Mary Isabella -Very royal.
Mary Annabel -This feels a little Alice in Wonderland-ish to me. :)
Mary Camille -Lovely.
Mary Vivienne / Vivian
Mary Viviana -Same feeling as Liliana for me.
Mary Wilhelmina
Mary Lucia
Mary Liliana -I love how Mary and Liliana look together, but Liliana seems almost too decadent. Hm...
Mary Elisabeth
Mary Genevieve

Mary Grace -So pretty.
Mary Simone -I agree, this is great as a double name.
Mary Elise -I would prefer Mary Elisa.
Mary Violet
Mary Charlotte -I love this! It's so dignified. I don't even like Charlotte.
Mary Sophia
