[Opinions] Marni/Marnie
Saw someone named Marni in the credits of a movie, which struck me as a better alternative to the usual spelling Marnie, which is just 'meh' to me.
What do you think of either?

I've seen Marni in credits, too, which is the only place I've seen it. I've only seen Marnie used in the Alfred Hitchcock movie.Marni seems a smidge more glam, maybe like Mitzi... while Marnie seems more like Myrna.

Hi !!!Both Marnie and Marni seem dated to my ears. Marina is much much better.

I like the spelling Marni but I think I prefer Marnie or Marney. I'm not a huge fan of the name, but I don't dislike it.

I like Marnie better. It looks more complete.

Never liked either, it had always had a made up feel to me.

I prefer Marnie. Marni looks like some exotic name and Marnie is the usual spelling, but it could be a good alternative.

I’ve always loved Marnie, but I wouldn’t use it myself. I find it too nicknamey, and I don’t like Marna or any other longer alternatives.Marni looks dated. Back in the late 80s we all changed Ys to Is to seem edgy. Who knew that a decade or two later all those people who wanted their name to be Ricki or Randi or Mindi would name their kids things like Maddysyn?
