Any ideas?

Again not strictly a variant as far as I know but I instantly thought of [name_f]Mireille[/name_f]

Mireya (mi-ray-uh) is a name I’ve only ever heard once but I think it is such a beautiful name, and [name_u]Rae[/name_u] as a nickname can be easily used especially if you would want to change the spelling to something along the lines of Miraeya?

Right! I love the names [name_u]Maria[/name_u] and [name_f]Mariah[/name_f] but I feel like [name_f]Mireya[/name_f] is such a refreshing take, a lovely name that stands on its own!

What about [name_f]Raelynn[/name_f]? I know it is not related to the name [name_u]Maria[/name_u], but still, it’s kinda pretty.

I can’t think of any variants of [name_u]Maria[/name_u] that would give [name_u]Rae[/name_u] as an obvious nickname. Perhaps something like [name_u]Maria[/name_u] [name_f]Reina[/name_f] or [name_f]Reina[/name_f] [name_u]Maria[/name_u], NN [name_u]Rae[/name_u]?

Regina [name_u]Day[/name_u] is nice - I really like [name_f]Regina[/name_f]! [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Regina[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] or [name_f]Regina[/name_f] [name_f]Faye[/name_f]?

This is a hard one but only two names i could think of:
[name_f]Mireya[/name_f] (other spellings including Mirea, [name_f]Mireia[/name_f])
[name_f]Mariya[/name_f]
