Marlowe.
What do you guys think? I think of it kind of like a combo of Marley and Harlow.
I also like the reference to the great poet, Christopher Marlowe.

My current combo is Marlowe Raven Luna.

If you guys don't like it, please suggest some more names for me?
Here are my other little girls: Karine, Nahla, Lenore, Wylie, and Elektra.

I hadn't thought about it until recently, when I had to use it in a Name Game.

It is sort of growing on me. Probably because I like Monroe (for a boy) and I like Marlee.

Marlowe's all right. Not my style, but it's cute. It has a sort of Old Hollywood vibe to me. Marley / Marlie and Lo / Lowe are cute nicknames for it, too.

I like Marlowe, I think it's pretty but spunky at the same time.
But I'll be honest, something about Marlowe Raven Luna is off to me. I think it's the Marlowe Raven Luna part.
Maybe Marlowe Luna Raven? The letters don't seem to clash as much at least to me. But I might just be going crazy.

Marlow is so pretty and unique

[EmilyA]

Love Marlowe! It's so different and has the right amount of spunk.

[Remy Hadley]

I actually like Marlowe! Though for whatever reason, it feels more balanced as Marlow to me though spell check agree's with you on Marlowe I automatically think the same on it as a mix of Marley and Harlow (which are both names I really like as well). I love the poet connection it has though!! <3

Very pretty, darling! Plus the combo is beautiful <3 <3

Eeeh, thanks guys! I have a few options:

Wylie Rita Judith
Marlowe Jessica Rae

Elektra Mia Luna

Wylie Mia Luna
Marlowe Jessica Rae
Elektra Rita Judith

[flying-person]

I love Marlowe Jessica Rae and Wylie Rita Judith/Wylie Judith Rita <3

At first I didn't like Marlowe because of the reference to Christopher Marlowe, because he was (obviously) a guy, but after thinking about it I really like it I guess it's no different to naming your child Brontë.

I prefer Elektra spelt Electra, but only because that's the original spelling and it doesn't relate so much to the movie. Out of your middle name options, I would mix it up and do Elektra Judith Mia, because having two As and the end of them all makes the name a little to much.

Hope it helped!

Thanks sweetie! I bounce back and forth between Electra and Elektra.
My man likes the K more, so that's the tipping point for me.

I think Marlowe Jessica Rae is my final combo for Marlowe. So perfect. (:

[Sierra Eleanor]

I like Marlowe Jessica Rae! I'd actually prefer Jessica Rae Marlowe, but that's just me. I don't like Marlowe Raven Luna, though. It seems a little, I don't know, spooky.

[PaperHeart]

There's something about Marlowe I like. But for me it would be more of a GP.

Marlowe Jessica Rae is definitely an interesting combo! I think I prefer it to Raven Luna simply because I like how Jessica tones it down a little.

I know you're a very "literary" person and with that comes a more unique naming style, but it's just my opinion that Jessica works better.

Plus, I like that it would honour your sisters!

[Katie-Nana]

I really like it. It is similar enough to Margo/Margaux that it definitely feels feminine. I think Marlowe Raven Luna is divine!!

I like how Jessica tones down Marlowe. (:

[Mika Casey]

I'm still trying to figure all of my combos out...right now I have this. I have to run it by Tim and see what he thinks.
Having 7 sisters between the two of us makes honoring names tough...

Karine Laura Poet
Nahla Terri Nicole
Lenore Memphis Ann
Wylie Raven Mia
Marlowe Kyra Lee
Elektra Judith Rae

[flying-person]

Karine Laura Poet- I feel like Poet is a bit of an abrupt stop to such a flowy name, but maybe your last name will round it off? I love Karine <3

Nahla Terri Nicole- Nice, not my style but still nice. Nahla reminds me of Halle Berry and the Lion King.

Lenore Memphis Ann- I prefer Eleanor, but that's just me. It's still a cool name, with some nice nickname options (Lenny, Nor, Nora)

Wylie Raven Mia- I love <3

Marlowe Kyra Lee- My favourite out of them all!!! I like this even more than Marlowe Jessica Rae!!

Elektra Judith Rae- Probably my least favourite, just because of the spelling
