Answer 1

behindthename.com, as usual, has a nice summary under the common English form of this name -- "Mary":

"Usual English form of Maria, which was the Latin form of the New Testament Greek names Μαριαμ (Mariam) or Μαρια (Maria) (the spellings are interchangeable), which were from the HEBREW name מִרְיָם (Miryam). The meaning is not known for certain, but there are several theories including "sea of bitterness", "rebelliousness", and "wished for child". However it was most likely originally an EGYPTIAN name, perhaps derived in part from mry "beloved" or mr "love".
