Re: How would you spell this name?
in reply to a message by Ash
Mária (http://www.behindthename.com/name/ma10ria) is what you're looking for I think. I doubt people will always put the stress on the first syllable when seeing this name, despite the accent...All I can think of is Marja or Marya for the stress on the first syllable to be obvious, but that would make it a 2-syllable name.

Thanks for replying. I came across the last two that you mentioned before, but I've never thought of the accented one. I'll keep that in mind.
