Seconding this, such a gorgeous name!!

My suggestion is Marharyta, which is a Ukrainian & Belarusian form of Margaret! Pronounced mar-ha-RIH-tah (or alternatively mar-kha-RIH-tah, it’s that “kh” H sound!). Two famous bearers I could find are recent Olympic medal winners Marharyta Makhneva & Marharyta Dorozhon.
