Andrea’s Art

Andrea shares thoughts about her name on Namely Marly's The Name Project.

My new series is called The Name Project, where I do in-person, brief interviews about peoples' names along with my photograph of them. Names are my inspiration and I hope to share with you photographs of a variety of people and some fun stories about their names.

Today's interview is with Andrea. Everyone should be so lucky to have an Andrea in their life, especially this one. She likes to call a spade a spade, so to speak, which is not an uncommon trait for people sharing this name. Roy Feinson says that Andrea's, "consider themselves to be realists (rather than pessimists) who are simply being candid about the state of the world...they feel it is their duty to tell the truth."

Andrea's truth? Names just are what they are!

A Woman Named Quincie

The Name Project by Marly featuring today's guest Quincie

I’m constantly meeting people with names. I wonder why that is. And oftentimes I find myself meeting people with names I find really intriguing. Well, usually, that’s most of the time, because I really love names. It’s why I started my name interview series, Namely People. But recently I was inspired to start a new series of interviews. I’m calling it The Name Project, a new venture on the Namely Marly site where I do in-person interviews, featuring my photographs of the people I’m interviewing. And the final distinguishing factor? The Name Project interviews are brief. Today's Name Project Interview is with a woman named Quincie. What a way to start off a new series!
