Mary is a very common female name in many Western places - not just America. Marie and Maria are both variations. You will also hear in in combinations with other names, like Mary Ann. The origins of the name are biblical - there were several Mary's in the Bible, one of them being the Virgin Mary, or Jesus Christ's mother.
The name doesn't refer to anything "special" in modern American society.

Basically it is a common girl's name taken from the name of Jesus' mother. It is also a type of shoe as in "Mary Jane's" and it is a type of writing style in the Internet fan fiction called "Mary Sue".
