HelpRe: How would you pronounce Marissa?
in reply to a message by Lisa
Marissa - mah-rissa
Marisa - mah-ree-sa
Portugal
I don't know any Marissas, but I do know some Marisas (all of them pronounce their name mah-ree-za). It was fairly common about 10-15 years ago, and is still used (usually by young people with lower income and education level - name trends, please don't sue me for this); also common in the Gipsy community. Generally it's considered as a 90's trendy name.

I was born in Lisbon, but I live in this really small town (about 4,000 people) in the middle of nowhere =P. It's deep south, in the deserted region of Baixo Alentejo.
Were you born here, or are your parents Portuguese? Or anything else lol! Sorry, this is curiosity taking over me... :-)
