Awful. People will just think you've misspelt Melissa. Plus the whole Malice thing.

I'd spell it Melissa. It sounds quite old fashioned but I quite like it. Think I prefer Marissa though.

Is that an anglicisation of man's name Malíosa?

Melissa is fine if a bit dated, Malissa looks like a misspelling.

I was never fond of Melissa ( dated), and I don't like this either.
I can hear Malice. She could also have a lifetime of correcting people.
