Elegant sophistication defines this underutilized gem. Irish and Italian influences blend to create something that sounds both familiar and refreshingly different. The name suggests maturity and grace even in childhood, growing beautifully alongside its bearer. It's the choice of parents who appreciate classic literature, Celtic culture, or simply want something less common than Mary or Marie. There's a vintage quality here that's experiencing renewed interest as families rediscover names their great-grandmothers might have known. The pronunciation is straightforward, yet the name carries an air of mystery. It suggests someone cultured, thoughtful, and confident—someone who doesn't need to shout to be heard.
