[Opinions] Re: Marlowe...for a boy?
in reply to a message by suzanne146
You and 3/4 of the entire United States are having this love affair.
I think Marlowe is usable as a boy's middle name.
I don't think the E on the end makes much difference as far as it being masculine or feminine, since it's so much a surname. Anyway it still sounds the same as Marlo, which is unisex and a personal name. To me Marlo would be a way cooler middle name, because it's neither a this-sounds-so-kewl someone-else's-surname name, nor a pretentious reference to British lit. But, do what you will - my opinion is only my opinion, based on my own personal naming-values, and I wouldn't bother judging if I met someone with the name.
