[Opinions] Mary, Marie or Maria
Which of these do you prefer? I personally like all of them, but if I had to pick, it would be Maria>Marie>Mary. I’m a bit biased, because Marie is my middle name.

Maria
Marie with the French pronunciation doesn't happen where I live; here, it sounds like meREE.
Maria is a family name but when choosing a mn for our daughter, we didn't think it worked well so we changed it to Mary, which is shorter and fitted better, rhythmically.

Marie as a first name would be so refreshing (here in the U.S., where it's an extremely common middle name)! I also quite like Maria.
Marie is underrated as a first name.
Marie > Maria > Mary
Marie > Maria > Mary
1 Mary - a popular name on both sides of my family so it's a sentimental choice.
2 Marie - sounds sweet and delicate.
3 Maria - I keep hearing the irritating song "Maria" from West Side Story.

I love Maria and Marie is nice too, though a bit overused for a middle name. Mary is just blah.
Maria>Marie>Mary too
