I love this name. It's sweet and elegant. Very feminine. I don't like Maria or Ana but Mariana is perfect! It's one of my favorite names.

My best friends name is Mariana. It's actually a Spanish name. I think it's an okay name, but she really suits the name. Everyone one says her name as Maryanna, when it's really said as Mari- on- a.

It's my name and I don´t like it. It was one of the most common names in Brazil in the 1980´s. If you´re walking along the streets and someone shouts "Mariana" 6 or more girls turn around thinking they are being called. In my first year at university there were 3 Marianas in my class. We were called by our surnames to avoid confusion. My mother named me Mariana because she thinks it´s a sweet name. She wanted to name me Rebecca but my father doesn´t like it, so they agreed on Mariana.Commom nicknames: Mari, Naná.

My name is Mariana. Honestly I have never liked it because growing up and living in Illinois people who are not of Latino origin have had a hard time with spelling and pronunciation. However everyone around me seems to really like it... I always get compliments. In Spanish, I see why my parents liked it and I like it much better pronounced correctly (Mah-Ri-Ahna) and I also like the nickname Mari my grandmother gave me. If you encourage your child to be proud of her name and its pronunciation, I see no reason as to why it would be a problem.
I love this name, I think it's so graceful. Both of my closest friends are named Mariana, and I love saying this name. It's also a baroque city in Brazil.
