The name Maryam is a girl's name of Arabic, Greek, Iranian origin. As Mary sails further out of style, her variations become more appealing, whether you're honoring an ancestral Mary or Marie or Miriam or simply love the tradition of the name. The Arabic Maryam may often be misunderstood as the more familiar Miriam, which it sounds like, but it's a beautiful variation worth considering despite the possibility of confusion. Maryam is also a botanical name in Iran.
