Mariami is Georgian in Origin.
Mariami is the Georgian feminine name corresponding to Mary/Mariam, ultimately from Hebrew Miryām, transmitted through Greek Mariam/Maria. In Georgian, Mariami is the standard nominative form, often rendered internationally as Mariam. The name has been deeply rooted in Georgia since its Christianization, honored through devotion to the Virgin Mary and borne by medieval queens and noblewomen, which kept it in steady use. It remains common in modern Georgia and the wider Caucasus.
Its meaning is debated: proposals include "wished‑for child," "beloved," or "bitter/rebellious"; later Christian folk etymology yielded "star of the sea." International variants include Maria, Mary, Marie, Miriam, Maryam, Mariya, and Mariamne. Georgian short forms and diminutives include Mari, Maro, Maka, and Marika. Related spellings within Georgia/region include Mariam and Maryam, but Mariami best reflects native Georgian morphology.
