Is 'Marion' a girl or boy's name??

Question

i'm writing a letter to the head of a department
and i don't know if i write mr. or ms.

so that's why i would like to know if marion is a girl or boy's name

thankss

...so essentially..should i write mr. or ms. marion????

Answer 1

write MRS

traditionally Marion is a woman's name, you will find far more women with this name than men

Answer 2

Both. My grandmother's name is Marion. I also knew a man named Marion.

I think a more typical spelling for women is Marian, although my grandmother is Marion with an O.

Answer 3

Marion can either be male or female. A good Example is:

Marion Michael Morrison better known as "THE DUKE" aka John Wayne.

I know that does not help but it did answer your question. Have a good day.

Answer 4

I've heard it both ways.
