A rare female name derived from the Welsh language meaning white wave.
German variant of Maria, the Latin form of Mary, which is derived from the Hebrew MiryÄm (sea of bitterness, sea of sorrow). There is much debate over the meaning of the name, however. While "sea of bitterness or sorrow" seems to be the most probable, some sources give the alternative definitions of "rebellion," "wished-for child," and "mistress or lady of the sea."
Can be a derivative of Mercedes which means Mercy in Spanish.
Recently been given a new association with a woman being divalicious.
