Of the sea; bitter; or star of the sea
Marasia is a rare name likely derived from the Latin 'Maris' or as a variation of the name Maria. It carries the maritime associations of the sea, though it may also be linked to the Hebrew 'Marah' meaning bitter. Its exact etymology is fluid, often appearing as a creative elaboration of classic roots.
