Marvin Gardens is one of the properties in the game Monopoly.

It sounds like sort of a sad name, probably because of the robot from "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy." Aww!

Most Marvins are reserved but nice people. It's a common but mysterious name. Cool name!

My grandfather's name is Marvin, and he was on Iwo Jima when the flag was raised over the mountain, so for me, it's a very proud and strong name.

Starvin' Marvin is the poor Ethiopian boy who was in two episodes of South Park.

Although I am a Marvin Gaye fan, I am anything but a fan of the name Marvin and I don't think it's cool. It sounds a bit like the name Mervyn which is definitely uncool and nerdy.

The German pronunciation is MAHR-veen. [noted -ed]

I really love this name. It sounds adorable for a little boy, yet handsome for a man. Slightly nerdy, sure, but who doesn't love a nerd?

Lily and Marshall on How I Met Your Mother have a baby boy named Marvin in honor of Marshall's deceased father (also named Marvin).
