I keep coming back to this name. The main reservation I have is with the pronunciation. I realize in an English-speaking culture, I'm going to hear muh-RISS-uh a lot even though the
Marissa spelling is much more prevalent and seems more intuitive. I prefer the muh-REES-uh pronunciation and wonder if it's a reasonable expectation that people would pronounce it this way. After all, we all know how to pronounce
Lisa easily enough.
WDYT? How do you pronounce
Marisa?
Marissa?
