Miriam?
Lately I love this name. What would be some good nicknames though? Not that nicknames are necessary, but I'm curious. Mary could work since they are basically the same name, but what about Miri?

Miriam is awesome. I sorta dig old-fashioned girl names that don't end in the letter a. As for nns, I love Miri and Mem. Mamie perhaps could also work.

I used to love this name; in primary school, I had a classmate with this name. Because of her (she was a shy, yet warm and intelligent person back then), I thought the name was soft and unpretentious. Nowadays I pretty much hate it, because I now know someone else with the name who I absolutely cannot stand. It makes me cringe every time I hear it. Unfortunate.But otherwise, the name is not too common (at least not where I live) and a person would have no problems with this name throughout life.
