I reading the name Mari & I was wondering how you would pronounce it? I pronounce it as Mar-ee. I like that name. But I wasn't sure if that was right. Could it be Mary? Just wondering? THIA

I read it and pronounced it as you did, Mar-ee. I think you would get a lot that would think its Mary though. Mari is a unique name and I like it.

I say it the same way you do. I know someone with this name who spells it Mahrie, which makes it less confusing with Mary. Very pretty.

I have no idea of the "right" way to say it but I would pronounce it like Mary if I saw it.
