[Opinions] Marianna

I'm toying with variants of Maria these days. While I love this name, I'm a bit put off by the boredom factor it has.
So I was thinking about Marianna, which would also honour my mother whose name is Anna (though I happen to know she dislikes Marianna).
So, WDYT?

I think it is really pretty. I have thought about using Mariana (this spelling) to honor my mom's middle name (Ann) and various Marys and Marias in my family. I don't find it boring because Marianne is more common here.

I love Maria and Marianne, but not so much Marianna.

It's fine, but I prefer Mariana. Mariana seems more sophisticated and elegant, while Marianna seems a bit dated.I prefer Marina to both, but I don't think it's technically a variant of Maria.

I knew a girl called Marianna. She really suited it. It has a princess-like feel and she was very girly, so i thought it suited her really well.
I really like:Marianna Rose
