Comments for the name Merry (1)

Merry Hanson is the heroine in Beverly Lewis' SummerHill Secrets books for girls.

Merry could be a nickname for someone named America.

Merry Christmas, anyone?

Merry Vik was a pseudonym used by a writer of popular young adult fiction in Sweden. She chose it because it meant happy and Vik (meaning bay) because she loved the sea.

A possible nickname for someone with the name Meredith.

My friends name is Marianna she goes by Merry. I also think that Merry would NOT be a good nickname for America. A girl I know goes by the name America. She does not like Merry but prefers Rica. I agree with her.

I know someone who's name is just Merry, she likes the name but gets annoyed when anyone calls her Mary or makes jokes about "Merry Christmas."

I love this name! However, whenever I see it, I'm tempted to pronounce it like how Mary is pronounced.

Sounds weird. Maybe if your name is Meredith or Mercy, it would sound fine. But as a legal name, it wouldn't work and would lead to teasing.

Perfect for this time of year.
