|
|
| I am looking for somewhere I can look up this information. Similar to the ones you purchase as a personalized gift. Specifically, I am looking for the meanings of Rylee (female) and Marie. I've searched the internet but just keep coming up with the short versions ... not the full one with the background information. |

| I found this on www.ancestry.com for the name Marie, but there is nothing in relation to the other name, sorry.MarieFrench form of Maria. When first introduced to England in the Middle Ages, it was Anglicized in pronunciation and respelled Mary. This French form was reintroduced into the English-speaking world as a separate name in the 19th century, and is still pronounced more or less in the French manner, although sometimes with the stress on the first syllable. The French name is also commonly used as a male name in the combination Jean-Marie.Pet form: Manon.Hope this helps. |
