Oh, it's awful.

It's a decent Greek name and would be fine if it wasn't so close to the name Melissa. I wouldn't go for it if you are in the UK as it would get too annoying having to correct people all the time.

I don't like the name Melissa....and definitely not with that spelling having to correct people all the time.

Mal is bad in French - that's what it makes me think of.

Melissa and Marissa are both nicer than Malissa IMO. The 'malice' sound in Malissa puts me off.

Marisa (mah-ree-sa) is also nice.
