What is the meaning of the name Mariatta ?

The baby name Mariatta is a Female name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced mah-ree-AH-tuh or mah-ree-ET-uh (IPA: /ˌmɑːriˈɑːtə/ or /ˌmæriˈætə/).

Mariatta is Italian, Latin in Origin.

Mariatta is a rare feminine name linked to Marietta, the Italian and pan‑European diminutive of Maria, and to the Finnish Marjatta. All derive from Maria (Hebrew Miryam), whose meaning is variously interpreted as “beloved,” “wished‑for child,” or “sea of bitterness,” with a devotional reading as “star of the sea.”

Usage clusters in Finland and the Finnish diaspora, and appears sporadically elsewhere as an alternative to Marietta. In Finnish tradition it echoes Marjatta, the virtuous maiden of the Kalevala whose story parallels the Virgin Mary. Related forms and cognates include Marietta, Mariette, Marita, Marika, Marjatta, Maria, Marie, and Mary; nicknames include Mari, Ria, Rita, and Etta.
