    I like it. But then again, it's on my list also! (not the mn, just Erin Smile)

    There is nothing wrong with it, but it lacks something special. It sounds really really plain and a little outdated. I just don't really like it that much. I like Kate better.

    While I like the name, it's definitely not a name I would consider. There are a lot of others that I like more. Kate is one of them.?

    While it's cute, but there is no wow factor for me with it. I like Erin, but I might pair it with a gorgeous, longer middle name.

    I don't think it's dated but it's NMS at all. If memory serves me right Marie means something like bitterness and disappointment. I know not everyone would know that (or care) but I always think of it when I see the name. One of my favorite girls names is Corinne which kinda sorta has a similar sound to Erin.

    I really like Erin, but I'm not a fan of Marie. I think Erin would sound nice with a longer mn.

    I think Erin is lovely.  Everyone will know how to say it and spell it but she will not be one of 4 Erins in her class.

    I like it because it isn't Emily, Isabelle, Kate, Olivia, Madison, Grace.... It seems every second baby is named one of those names.

    Very true! Why is that?! I want my child to be the only child in her/his class with her/his name.?

    Me too. I also agree with maybe a longer mn?

    i think it's pretty, but i'm partial to it as Erin is my name!!  Wink

    I like Erin, but mn needs to be longer (thinking 3 syllables) and more feminine to avoid the simple/slightly boring potential. Marie is so overused!

    Maybe Erin Katherine?

    And I like it with the bro's names!

    Well, since you said it, I'm going to admit that I think it's outdated.  Makes me think of someone born in the mid- to late-80s.

    I like it, but it's very "safe" (which is fine, but sort of plain).  I would keep Erin and use a slightly more creative mn.

    Amen! I love Erin.

    I like Erin. Not a fan of Marie unless it is a family name.

    Thanks for the honest feedback, ladies!  I probably should have added that Marie IS a family name.. it's my middle name, my mom's middle name, and her mom's middle name.  I do kind of agree though that the combo is too plain.. if I went with Erin, I'm not SET on using Marie.. I could do something more creative.

    I love the name Erin Marie. I am partial to it, it is my sisters name and she turned 25 this year. Erin is not a name I heard often growing up.  Smile
