[Opinions] Re: Mary
in reply to a message by Ani
No. There's nothing wrong with religion, it's beautiful and useful. I think it would be awesome if more people were named Mary; the BVM is an amazing namesake. I have a little cousin named Mary; granted, she's Catholic, but I don't feel like it would be someone's immediate assumption. Her name is Mary Antoinette.❣️https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/214161✌️

There’s nothing wrong with religion but as a non-religious person I wouldn’t want it assumed that I am a very religious person because of my child’s name. Granted, I’m not expecting or planning to be so this is all just for fun and hypotheticals. Mary Antoinette is a very pretty name. :)

I do like the name, but as a Christian, it has serious religious significance, and it does sound more Catholic than Protestant. However, I would consider using a form of Mary for a future daughter. Maria does not have the strong Catholic association to me.

Yeah, mine are just for fun too. Thanks
