With all of these weird spellings I wasn't quite sure which name you were trying to spell! When I saw Maren, near the end of the list, I clued in. I LOVE that name, its beautiful! Most of these spellings are too much IMO, but I really like either Maren or Maryn, although I prefer Maren. When I see Mareane or Marene, I would think it would be pronounced "mar-EEN", so I would avoid those spellings. Simple is better, IMO.

I like both Maren and Marin (which wasn't a choise), the others were too confusing to me -- I couldn't figure out how they were supposed to be pronounced -- or just visually unappealling. I voted for Maren, which I think is lovely.

I LOVE the name Maren, but my husband does not.
Go for it!

What is the pronunciation you are going for? I, too, like Maren, but I wasn't sure if some of your other choices would be pronounced that way.

I'd respond, but to me I would pronounce these differently. Are you looking to spell MARY-ann or Mar-ee-on or Mar-in? I read three different names based on those spellings. Which one is it supposed to be?
