A Persian name pronounced a bit like Merry, thoughts?

Hi everyone! Thank you for all of your opinions. I understand that it may be confused with Mary - those of you who have met others with the name before, how have they explained the pronunciation to you? Thanks.

I've taught a few and only needed telling how to pronounce it correctly once, it's not a tricky one to get right. I think it's very pretty!

Really pretty 🥰

I think it's a beautiful name, but I do think it will lead to a lifetime of corrections, which may or may not be a big deal.

Are you Persian/Iranian?

Gorgeous name. Might be a bit odd on someone without Persian heritage, though.

It's OK but sounds too much like Mary and I think that she'll spend the rest of her natural life correcting people (which, from experience, is a complete pita)
