Meaning & History

The Latin version of the Greek name Μαρία, which in turn derives from the Hebrew מִרְיָם, is commonly known as Maria. This is the standard form of the name in numerous European languages, while it serves as a secondary option in languages like English, where Mary is the more prevalent spelling. In certain nations, such as Germany, Poland, and Italy, Maria is sometimes employed as a masculine middle name.

This name belonged to two queens who ruled Portugal. Additionally, it was the name of Maria Theresa, a Habsburg queen who reigned from 1717 to 1780. Her ascension to power following the death of her father, Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI, sparked the War of the Austrian Succession.
