I like Mary on its own, but I doubt that I could ever use the name. My favorite forms of Mary are Marie, Maria, and Miriam.
I checked its listing and found some great ones.
Mariela
Manca
Marica
Mere
Mara
Miren
Marianne
Marielle
Mariette
Maris
Ona
Mitzi
Ria
Masha
Mele
Molle
Muire
Maureen
Marise
Moria
Mariel
Maia
Those are my favorites pulled right from the variants listings. I never would have thought Ona would be a form of Mary. Apparently it is.

I like Mary, but I can't use it, because it's my mother's name and she never liked it. My favorite forms are Marie, Mariah, Molly, Miri, Miren, Maia, and Marzena.
I'm not huge on Mary. I prefer Marie or Miriam. I'd say Marie is my favourite. I think Molly/Mollie, Polly/Pollie, Mia, Mae/May and Mamie are cute too.
Miriam and Maria, which I like for it’s universality.
Molly, but I don’t think I would actually use it because of the drug connection.
I love just Mary. I also love Merle and I enjoy Miriam and Marianne. I find Marian and Marion intriguing - I don't particularly like them but there's something about them that draws me in.
My favorites are Marian/Marion, Marianne, Marianthe, and Mariella.
I like:
Miriam
Marion
Maria
Moira
Mariana

Miriam (obviously)
Mariana (we thought about this but were worried about would pronounce it mary-anna/mary-ana instead of mairahna)
Maire
Marianne for the Jane Austen connection
