Bitter; drop of the sea
Marrah is a variant of the Hebrew name Mara. In the Bible, Naomi takes the name Mara to express her grief, though the name is also associated with the Latin 'stella maris' meaning 'star of the sea' through its connection to Mary. It is a rare, modern spelling that adds a softer, contemporary flair to the ancient root.
