It's ok. I was thinking today that I like Perian and Periann (those showed up briefly/rarely in the US in the early 1960s). I'd probably pick Periann over Parisa, Parisa over Peri, Peri over Paris, Peri over Teri...but it'd bug me slightly that Perian is a name for Hobbits plus that Peri in mythology are "fallen" and require penance...maybe I'd pick Peregrine over Parisa even though I prefer that as masculine (though it's used about a third of the time as feminine anyway), so that the other associations seemed more distant...although I'd still probably prefer Periann... or else I'd go with Perrie because I like the "pear tree" etymology.
