It is a contraction of "Marina" and became popular because of the film. I think it is very pretty.

In the film, the character's actual name is Margaret.

I love the name Marnie and I've always had a strange fascination with the film despite my intense dislike of Tippi Hedren in it.

Her given name was "Rear Window", but I've no idea if she stereotyped herself to the determinism.

Winston Graham ( Poldark et al) wrote a novel called Marnie. Maybe that is the inspiration.

It's a popular name in its own right, esp in the US. Nothing to do with Margaret.

More likely Marnie's parents saw the film adaptation than read the book.

in the late 80s and she looked great. Connery was really annoyed that Hitchcock made him shave his eyebrows for that film and the fact that he did makes his face very odd in it. Connery had very, very bushy eyebrows normally. |
