Detailed etymology (in Slovak)

Východoslovanská hypokoristická podoba mena Mária, sprostredkovane súvisiaca s hebrejským menom Mirjam. Pôvodný význam mena Mirjam nie je spoľahlivo objasnený; tradičné výklady ho spájajú najmä s významami „horká“ či „vzdorovitá“, kým egyptská hypotéza vychádza z koreňa mrj vo význame „milovaný“.
