My Mom’s name is Marcia so I have very positive associations with the name. I’ve always thought it was very pretty but your dd will have to correct people on how to pronounce and spell it.

I really don't like it for a baby. Or an adult.

It reminds me of a woman from the early '80s, with a really long dark hair, wearing hoop earrings and a vest, who is pregnant and is one of Dr Huxtable's patients. This is not a real thing just something I've created in my mind.

For what it’s worth, I would assume it was pronounced Mar-see-a, rather than Mar-sha.

I have never heard of it pronounced Marseea

It does seem very 80s to me. I would not want it as a first name especially with an M last name. Fight for middle.

Not the standard American pronunciation, but also not uncommon at all. I know several.

Okay, Marcy rocks as a character.

Now, Brady Bunch Marsha, you know everyone hates her.

My thoughts exactly. Marcy spoke truth to power!
