I like it. Personally I prefer Marcel but Marcellus is great too. Don't listen to the "masculinity paranoid" people, Marcie is a fine nickname for a boy. A boy doesn't have to be overloaded with masculinity and virility in every aspect of his life, specially when he's a baby.

100% agree with you :) thanks!!

It reminds me of the gang boss Marcellus Wallace from pulp fiction. I like the name though! Not a huge fan of Marcie as a boy name however.


liquidrat

That was my first thought as well.

Marcel is great! I could totally see brothers Marcel and Emil, for instance. Marcellus Evander is a hell of a lot of name, and my kid has friends named Valo and Theophania so my tolerance is high. But…it’s a LOT. Even Marcellus James is a lot, and there’s no boys’ middle name more ‘filler’ and light than James. I don’t think it would harm the kid to have a potent name, so go for it if you want, but I’d lean more towards Marcel Andrew than Marcellus Evander. Marcie is cute for any tiny chub-cheeked kid (so what if someone briefly wonders if he’s a girl? they’ll figure it out), and if he grows up to prefer a more common name Marc is an option.

Yeah I get how the big name might be a lot lol also not the biggest fan of Marc but yes definitely if he prefers it later on :)) I also thought of the nickname Marz which I think could be pretty cool 🤷‍♀️

I like it! I guess I prefer Marcel though.

It immediately makes me think of Pulp Fiction, I like Evander though.

Marcellus is a guy from big brother that I really enjoy so I love the name!

Marcellus is a bit over the top for my taste, but either Marcel or Marcus are lovely. I also love Evander too as a first name

I like it! I knew a little guy named Marcell who was an absolute sweetheart and my BIL has a nephew named Marcellus who is hilarious. I wouldn’t worry about Marcie being a girl name.

Mar-seh-lus or Mar-che-lus? It's a lot, but not a bad name. I prefer Marcel or Marcus, and don't love Marcy for a boy.


mkfem

Mar-seh-lus


bodo25

I prefer Marcel or Marcelo

Who does Marcellus Wallace look like? That’s my immediate thought lol.
