Mariettah is in Origin.

Mariettah is a modern ornamental spelling of Marietta, the Italian and French pet form of Maria/Mary. Maria reached European languages through Latin and Greek from the Hebrew Miryam. The meaning of Miryam is debated; proposals include “beloved,” “wished‑for child,” and “bitter,” while medieval reinterpretations linked it to the sea, giving “drop of the sea” and, by later folk etymology, “star of the sea.”

Marietta appears in records from Renaissance Italy and spread through Catholic Europe as a devotional diminutive, later entering German‑ and English‑speaking use in the 18th–19th centuries. In the United States it saw 19th‑century pockets of popularity. The -h ending in Mariettah surfaces in late‑20th‑century Anglophone naming as a stylistic flourish and remains rare. Related forms include Marietta, Mariette (French), Mariëtte (Dutch), Marieta (Spanish/Catalan), Mariella and Mariela (Italian/Spanish), and Marita; cognates are Mary, Maria, and Marie.
