Looking for names that end in 'O'

I like the sound of Marlo, but not sure if I like how it looks. How would you spell it? Marlow, Marlowe, Marloe, Marlo? WDYT of it? Would it work for a boy or girl?

I have a friend named Marlo. I like it. She's kind of "goth" so I associate it with that.

Ha, funny for you to post both this and the unconventional nn post. Marlo Thomas, the actress, used Marlo as a nn for Margaret (via a mispronunciation of Margo).

Bc of the actress I find the name feminine, and stats wise, all spellings are used more for girls than boys.

Definitely like Marlow best and see it as a unisex name.

Back when it was on my list, it was Marlowe. I think it works fine for a boy or a girl, but I wanted it for a boy.

I like Marlowe, for a boy or a girl, 'cause Marlo makes me think of Marlo Thomas.

I think Marlo can be a boy or girl name, but to me it's more of a girl name.For a boy, I'd spell it Marlo and a girl Marlowe.

I like Marlo and I would spell it like that since I prefer simpler spellings. I could see people hearing merlot though... As for "o" names, I've always loved Cleo for a girl (my daughter's name is a variant of it, Cléa) and Theo for a boy. I also like Harlow very much, although it's starting to get more popular. And I always thought that Monroe would make a really cool name!
