How do you spell the version of Marie that's pronounced MAR-ee rather than Muh-REE?

[SundayRoast]

Or are they both spelled Marie and you just have to tell everyone?

Self-indulgent bump!

I have both of these in the family.

Mari is how it is spelt.

Marie is marie.

Why not spell it Maree if you want it pronounced like that? Or is that a bit naff? Dunno, just asking.

The 'Marry' we know is spelled Marie.
I think you just have to be proactive in pronouncing it to other people.

My Aunt is Marian but is known as Mari.

Gorgeous little girl in dds class is Mairi, pronounced MAH-ri

lol - My dad was a scouser (scotch/ irish parents) and Mum refused to call me Marie when they were deciding on names - as Dad pronounced it Mar-ee and it set her teeth on edge!

I've known two, both spelled Mari.

One of my friends from school (haven't seen her for years, and apologies if she's an mner) had a mum called Marie-pronounced-MAR-ee. We all just thought it was a bit poncy.

Actually, come to think of it, it may have been pronounced 'Marry'. Hmm.

still poncy though.

Mairi is nice though.

[I'll shut up now]

Have sis called Mairi. Pronouced MA-REE

Tis Gaelic for Mary I believe.
