Geriatric! Geriatric! Geriatric! |
| I generally think dead relatives' names shouldnt be used |
| I like Marcie better than Marcia. |
| I love Marcy. I’m not a fan of using other names just to plan to by the nickname. But if you need an alternate longer name for Marcy, I like Marcella over Marcia. |
Oh no! What will all the Jewish people do now? |
| I like the look of Marcia on paper more than the alternatives mentioned above, but the possibility of many people mispronouncing it would likely put me off. |
For what it’s worth, I would assume it was pronounced Mar-see-a, rather than Mar-sha. |
| I don't hate it as much as most PPs but I agree with you that it's better as a middle name. That's where non-pretty honorifics go. |
| I actually like this -- the name and the nickname! |
| It's very much of a 70s name and I never thought it was particularly pretty even then. Too close to marsh and mush. |
Marcella, nn Marcy, is a great suggestion! |

I was born in 1988, and still enjoyed the wholesome value of the Brady Bunch in syndicated reruns growing up. |
| I am neutral on Marcia but I would be delighted to meet a baby Marcy! |
First thing i thought of! "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!" |
