How do you pronounce Marius?

[name_f]Do[/name_f] you say [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us or Mahr-ius? I’ve heard that the marry-us pronunciation is correct but I was just wondering if anyone says it differently. I prefer Mahr-ius but wouldn’t use it if the pronunciation is wrong.

I would say it either mar-e-us, or muh-rye-us.

I say [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us

I think I say [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us.

I say Mah-re-us

I pronounce it mahr-ee-us. According to behindthename.com that is the correct pronunciation with slight variations depending on language / accent. Meaning, origin and history of the name Marius - Behind the Name

Same as Mario!

I would pronounce it as [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us

I would pronounced it [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us. Mostly thanks to the character in [name_u]Les[/name_u] Miserable that’s how I’ve always heard it said.

I would say Mah-re-us

Definitely [name_f]Marry[/name_f] - iss

I say Mah-ree-us.
I live in Australia, and would be surprised to hear [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us (or [name_f]Mare[/name_f]-ee-us) here, but I wouldn’t be surprised to learn it’s a common pronunciation in [name_u]North[/name_u] [name_u]America[/name_u].

[name_f]MARE[/name_f]-ee-us. Like merry-us.

I pronounce it Mahr-ius.

I would say [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us. I associate the name heavily with the [name_u]Les[/name_u] Mis character, and that’s how they pronounce his name in the show.

[name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us, with the A like in apple.

I do it interchangeably, and the fact that I can’t make up my mind makes me really uncomfortable, and it’s therefore the one big thing preventing me from using it as a middle for my son ”

Mahr-ius here, like [name_m]Mario[/name_m]- would never have considered [name_f]Marry[/name_f]-us!

I say marry-us, although I’m in the UK and that’s how it’s normally pronounced here. Most of the time when I hear people from the US say similar names the standard pronunciation seems to be mahr- instead though?
