Comments for the name Mars

Prince Mars, also known as Prince Marth, is a principal character in two of the Fire Emblem video game series, as well as the Fire Emblem anime. He is also an unlockable character in Super Smash Brothers Melee.

Veronica Mars is a high-school-aged, amature detective in the T.V. show of the same name.

It is the name used in Sweden for the month March.

Don't forget the candy company "Mars" and the candy bar "Mars Bar".

I like this for a girl.

You would have to be a real idiot to consider naming someone 'Mars'. Might as well name the next kid 'Neptune'.

As the name of a planet, this is quite a strange name for a person, but it beats Venus, Jupiter, and, I shudder to think, Uranus. It's not that bad, sound-wise anyway, but quite strange.

I'd never name MY kid this, but I can imagine it on a quirky, left-of-center sort of guy or girl who plays guitar, is chatty, and loves to have fun.

If it weren't a planet, I think there'd be more kids with this name out there.

The Greek name for the god Mars is Aries.

Correction: Aries was the ram in Roman mythology. Ares--no I--is the Greek god of war.

I wouldn't name my child Mars, but I'd definitely consider other variations of the name, like Ares.

I find it sort of odd to consider this name for a girl. Aside from the fact that she'd get made fun of, it is a VERY masculine name in every way. Other than the planet it's a Roman god and even the meaning has to do with masculinity.

Can be a nickname, or shortened version, for the name Marshall.

Mars was the name of one of the commanders of Team Galactic in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. Strangely, the character was female.

Actually, altrough it may be strange, I think the name Mars is ok to name a person in italy, because it came from rome, and it's the god of war of rome... but that's my opinion.
