Марисса
The English name Marissa is translated into Russian as Марисса.
The most straightforward way to say the name Marissa in Russian is Марисса.
Did you know?
- A Russian might combine the name Марисса with a 'patronymic', a second name derived from the father, to address her formally in a professional setting.
- The 'р' in Марисса is not a 'p' sound, but a rolled 'r', which is a common phonetic hurdle for English speakers reading Cyrillic names for the first time.
- Because the name ends in 'a', it follows the strict declension rules for feminine nouns, meaning the name 'Marissa' changes its ending completely when it becomes the object of a sentence, such as 'I see Marissa' becoming Я вижу Мариссy.
