Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Mariena je doložená slovenská domácka podoba mena Mária. Prostredníctvom gréckeho a latinského sprostredkovania patrí k hebrejskému menu Mirjam, ktorého pôvodný význam zostáva neistý. Hebrejský pôvod tu označuje doložené východiskové meno; hlbší egyptský pôvod je hypotézou. Mariena nemá samostatný etymologický význam odlišný od Márie.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Podobu Mariena spolu s podobami Marienka a Marienočka dokladá indexovaný text Slovníka slovenského jazyka VI, s. 141; celý PDF dokument sa pri overovaní nepodarilo načítať. Neistotu etymológie Mirjam a cudzojazyčné podoby uvádza Behind the Name, Mary. Medzinárodné ekvivalenty zodpovedajú základnému menu Mária; Maruška a Majka sú domácke podoby z rovnakého menného okruhu. Slabikovanie ma-rie-na a skloňovanie sú gramatickým rozborom slovenskej podoby. Konkrétne heslo v publikácii Milana Majtána a Mateja Považaja Vyberte si meno pre svoje dieťa nebolo priamo overené.
