[Opinions] Marlena
Looking for thoughts on a middle name for Marlena. The name is derived from Marlene (my grandmother's name). I first heard it in Water for Elephants and thought it was different, loved that it honored my grandmother, and I like 'Marley' as a nickname. Thoughts?

I like the name. One of my childhood friends has this name, now she goes by the nickname "Lena".

Marlena was "saved" for me because of "Water For Elephants." Before that I didn't give it much thought, but the character of Marlena, with her glamorous brand of ballsiness, made it a good name in my eyes.Marley is an adorable NN. As for combos, what about Marlena Beatrice, or Marlena Charlotte? I think those have a nice ring to them.

Marlena/Marlene are rather swish! Marley is not my style, but quite cute.I was so sure I had a bunch of Marlena combos in my lists but the only one I could find was Marlena Avery... Eh. I think that was because of shoes I was looking at at the time (it makes sense in my head). Suggestions:Marlena Bridget
Marlena Eirene
Marlena Evelyn
Marlena Fay
Marlena Gerlinde
Marlena Heike
Marlena Ingrid
Marlena Jean
Marlena Metis
Marlena Odell
Marlena Rosemary
Marlena Sophie
