[Opinions] Mavourney
I came across this rare feminine name earlier today, which I discovered is also found spelled as Mavournee and Mavournie. I think it probably comes from the Irish name Mavourneen. What do you guys think of it? I feel it's basically like Sigourney, but yet different.

Looks unnatractive and sounds harsh!

I'm sure you're right about the origin. Very soppy meaning; worse than Cara and Mia and Caramia.Maybe slightly preferable to Maureen.

Caramia??? Is it a name? @@

Since it's in the database, it most likely is, though it's not used in Italy.

I've seen it a couple of times; didn't make any notes so I don't even know if it was different people or the same one!

I love the meaning of Mavourneen. I think Mavourney is better than the -ee and -ie spellings. It would be cool to meet someone named this.

I like the Mavourney spelling best. I wouldn't use it, but I can see why you like it, and I think I would appreciate it on someone else's child.

Hi !!!First time I see this name (every variant).
But if Mavourneen means "my darling" in Irish so I will love it!!I'm indifferent about its variants.
