[Opinions] Marie or Maria
Replies
I think they're both better as first names. As FNs, they're very wearable; as MNs, they look like filler.
I'd prefer to be named Maria, of those two, so... Maria Saturnina, Maria Candela, Maria Wilhelmina. I like your Maria combos, too.
And I randomly fell in love with the combo Marie Yolande a long time ago, so that.
Or, Marie Meliora, Marie Nightingale, Marie Laurence, Marie Melisande, Marie Corisande, Marie Fernande would be okay.

Lots of European queens and princesses have had Maria and Marie as a first name. I know it would be associated with Mary, and thus the Virgin Mary, but were they all required by law to have Marie/Maria in their names? Like, couldn't someone have been a Princess Lucinda or a Queen Samantha?
I kinda like Marie more. It's my mom's middle name. Marie Josephine would sound lovely.

Marie basically any middle name would work
Angelina, Angeline, Anabel, Annabella, Audrey, Bethany, Amy, Catherine, Elizabeth, Eliza, Bianca, Chantal, Chelsea, Clara, Chloe, Daphne Delphine Faith Grace Holly Imogen Leilani Juliet Josephine Lucinda Naomi Olivia Rebekah Rachel Susannah Phoebe Penelope Vanessa Cassandra Genevieve Vivienne

Marie
I really like Marie for a first name. It was first name status for so long. Interestingly... in the early 1900s, over 20% of females in France were given that first name, not including all the Marie-X blends! I can't speak for what % were given prior to then, bc the BTN data only goes back to 1900.
