From USA, though I should say that I also use many Italian phonetics when I speak, since that is what my family speaks. I resisted the urge to trill those 'r's though. ;)
My step-mother might say it like mary-anna unless you corrected her. She is Pennsylvanian (back-woodsy).

Mama to my "bright star" Clarisse Bituin and Wife to Julius. Mahal na mahal from our little family to yours!
