There has always for several generations been a Marion spelt with O as a female in my family.

Girl's name
written by Sarah Elizabeth, February 18, 2008
It's one of those male names that has been transposed to female. Take the more recent examples Taylor/Tyler, Allison, Madison. My grandmother, an aunt and a cousin (all from my dad's side) were named Marion Elizabeth. Truly though, I believe that it is a bigender name, but, like the name Robin, is pretty much only used as a fem. name today.

I think it's original form is Miriam, but I can see how it can also come from Mary (or maybe they all stem from the same word/name).
girl or boy, who are we to judge?
