What is the meaning of the name Marisol ?

The baby name Marisol is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced Spanish: /maɾiˈsol/ (mah-ree-SOHL); English: /ˌmɑːriˈsoʊl/ (MAR-ee-SOLE).

Marisol is Spanish in Origin.

Marisol is a Spanish feminine given name formed as a contraction of María de la Soledad, a Marian title meaning “Mary of Solitude,” rooted in Spanish soledad (from Latin solitās, “loneliness”). In Spain it began as a devotional compound (María + Soledad) and evolved into an independent name across the Spanish-speaking world; it gained broader visibility in the mid-20th century through the Andalusian child star known as Marisol and later entered mainstream use in the United States via Hispanic communities and pop culture.

Common short forms include Mari, Mar, Maris, and Sol; related names are María Soledad, Soledad, and Sol. Alternative spellings or spacing such as Mari Sol or María Sol occur, though Marisol is standard; an occasional accent (Marisól) reflects stress but is nonstandard. A popular folk etymology reads it as mar + sol (“sea and sun”), giving it a sunny, beachy resonance.
