Marisa

Bearing in mind the differences in regional accent/dialect, the two options I would offer are

Marissa (i as in hip and long s as in miss)
Mareesa (emphasis on the i as in pizza)

TIA!!

I know two women called Marisa. One of them pronounces it as mar-issa and the other as mar-eesa. So I'd just ask.

Mareesa

Mar-EES-a...

One 's' i would say Mareesa

Initially I was going to say option 1 Mar-issa, but looking at it again I think the fact that there's only 1 s would make me think it's a Spanish or Italian name possibly so might be Mar-eesa instead.
