I'm fairly certain Maris has a connection to the god Mars, which, of course, a planet is also named after.

Maris hasn't any connection with the god Mars. In Latin, Maris is the genitive for of mare (sea), and the genitive form of Mars is Martis (hence the adjective "martial"): there is a -t- in the radical of the god's name.
