	Welcome to the boards, Nash. Maryella. Meriella. Marla (from Google search, as ErikaH suggests) Other similar names - depends if you mean spelled by an Italian, or spelled by another nationality - or mis-spelled by any nationality: https://babynames.com/name/mariella
	Researching: Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Member Since: August 2022 Posts: 2 Send Message	Thanks ArgyllGran. I mean Mariella spelled by an Italian. I had tried Google and Mirella gets the latest number of hits. Meriella (with an e) I hadn't found.
