The 1928 song by Irving Berlin "Marie, The Dawn Is Breaking". I love Tommy Dorsey's version too.

I don’t understand why it’s labeled Feminine and Masculine. It sounds far more feminine than masculine. Marie’s really unusual as a boy’s name. It’s normal as a girl’s name, especially as a middle name. You guys were so obsessed of how common Marie is as a girl’s middle name and it being overused and plain that I am the first one to comment the wonders of it being a boy’s name. I wouldn’t name my son this or give it to him as a middle name. I wouldn’t advise you guys to either. Naming a boy Marie is like naming a girl John.

The name is also labelled masculine because, in France, it was given to boys from the middle of the 19th-century throughout the 20th-century, pairings such as Jean-Marie or François-Marie are proofs of that. Giving Marie as a first or a middle name is now only common in devout Catholic families, so outside of that, I don't think people were ever considering it for their baby boy's name.

In 2018, 83 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Marie who is registered female with the Social Security Administration. It is the 172nd most common female first name for living U.S. citizens.

It can also be used as a masculine middle name just like Maria. [noted -ed]

Marie was an extremely common name in France in the first half of the 1900s. It ranked at #1 in 1900, 1905, 1910, 1915, 1920, 1925, 1930, 1935, 1940, 1945, 1950, and 1955. It fell to #3 in 1960 (behind Catherine and Sylvie), #10 in 1965 and was off the charts by 1970; however, it had a brief comeback in the 1980s. It ranked at #7 in 1980, #4 in 1985 (behind Aurélie, Émilie and Julie), #5 in 1990 (behind Élodie, Laura, Julie and Marine), #2 in 1995 (behind Manon) and #6 in 2000 before falling out of the top 10 by 2005.

Marie is a very popular and traditional name in France. It was the most common name given to girls born in the 20th century. Although it is no longer ranked #1, it is still quite popular. Personally, I adore this name. It's nowhere near as common in the US, which makes it so unique and beautiful. I would seriously consider naming my daughter this =)

In France, Marie is often used as a hyphenated name, such as Marie-Ange, Marie-Anne, Marie-France, Marie-Jeanne, Marie-Rose, Marie-Claire and Marie-Hélène. Marie is also an anagram of _aimer_, which means _to like/love_ in French.

Actually, I don't think that many young girls in the Czech republic favor their name "Marie" - it's usually considered a very old-fashioned name, because almost every child has a granny named "Marie". So, girls named "Marie" often go by nicknames: Mája ("Maa-ya"), Máňa ("Maa-nya"), or Mary (the english name). But, of course, not all of them.

This name is also used in Dutch and Limburgish, and in both languages, the pronunciation of the name is exactly the same as the German pronunciation.

Marie is 18th place in the Top 100 in Czechia. It was borne by 787 little girls.

It is one of the most popular middle names for girls out there, along with Ann and Elizabeth. It is not a very common first name for girls at all.

This is a very common middle name for girls.

This name is often used as a middle name for boys as well in Catholic countries such as Belgium and Spain. Nearly every man in the Belgian royal family has this as one of his many middle names!

Marie is one of the most popular names in Belgium.

In Sweden Marie is often paired with another name; Marie-Louise, Britt-Marie and Ann-Marie are three standard versions.

It's the most popular first name for girls in Germany at the moment.

A very common middle name for girls.
