Monroe for girl's middle name?

[ilvmylbug]

I've always been a huge fan of Marilyn Monroe and I'm at a loss for middle names. How about if I pay tribute to my favorite actress? Is it cheesy?

 

[BridieChild]

Not at all. I have a friend who is obsessed with Paul McCartney, so she named her daughter Paula McCartney Mellor.

I don't think it's cheesy at all. Depending what you pick as your child's first name, I think Monroe makes a cool middle name

I like it!

Ha, it's my stepdad and little brother's middle name, so for me - it would have to go on a boy! I love it either way though.

I love it, My friends middle name is Boleyn x

I really like it!

Some might think it's a tad masculine (I first think of the US president when I hear Monroe) but once they hear it's a girl I think they'll make the Marilyn connection. Very "cool" sounding name!

I think it's cool--it's like those retro-androgynous names that are big right now--Marlowe, Harlow, Parker, Harper (I know that's for Harper Lee, but it's still androgynous)... It's nice that it means something to you, too.

I'm not personally a fan b/c i first thought of President Monroe, but it would certainly be a neat talking point for you with your daughter, so i'd say go with it if that's what you really want, chica!

I think it's cute. I know Mariah Carey named her girl twin Monroe The boy I believe was Moroccan... which I'm not a big fan of haha. But Monroe is cute!

[RubyRainbows]

Yeah, Mariah Carey's twins are Monroe & Morrocan...

I like it! I would pair it with a pretty, feminine 1st name tho!
