If you really love the name Maria, I think you should use it as a first name.

Ella- too trendy....
Maria- LOVE it. NN Mar or Ria are both cute, if you want a nn
Eva- Nice. You could also do Evangeline or Evelyn nn Eve/Eva. They flow better with mn Maria.

How about..

Cecily Maria

Francesca Maria

Naomi Maria

Felicity Maria

Dahlia/Dalia Maria

Romilly Maria

Adeline Maria

Ruby Maria

Simone Maria

Gretchen Maria

Delaney Maria

Caleb - a bit trendy
Julian- LOVE it. So strong and handsome
Domonic- Love Dominic, but dislike your spelling, looks odd

Do you have any family names you could use for a boy?

Maybe if you took some of the names you like for girls and used a longer version of the name.

Isabelle Maria nn Ella
Danielle Maria nn Ella
Eleanor Maria nn Ella
Ellasyn Maria nn Ella
Evelyn Maria nn Eve
Evangeline Maria nn Eve
Everett Maria nn Eve (Everett is commonly a male name, but I grew up with a girl named Everett, and so it is pretty feminine to me and I think it is beautiful)

As for boys, I love all of your names, so how about just combining some of them:

Caleb Julian
Caleb Dominic
Julian Dominic

Good Luck!

Maria would be a lovely fn choice. dont hear that at all anymore! if you are open to it, I say go that route. Maria Eve is very pretty. For boys I like Caleb Julian.
