Marita 2

Also Estonian: https://et.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marita

This name got also adopted into Latvian usage: https://www.pmlp.gov.lv/lv/sakums/statistika/personvardu-datu-baze/?id=137&query=Marita.

Marita is also used in Georgia. Dimunitive of Mariam. It's quite rare and really unique.

Marita is indeed used in Georgia, where it is written as მარიტა. However, it is not a diminutive of Mariam, but rather, a contraction of Margalita and/or Margarita (both of which mean "pearl"):

Also, the name is really not that rare at all... and that makes sense, given the prevalence of Margalita and Margarita in the country. I can easily find a lot of bearers on Facebook. Here are some examples of bearers that I found on there (for privacy reasons, I will refrain from directly linking to their profiles):

NOTE: all of these people have a public profile, i.e. apparently they do not mind being searchable and googleable.

An exact Google search for "Marita" + "ge.linkedin" will also turn up Georgian bearers, although it should be noted that LinkedIn has a much smaller database than Facebook.
