Is Marry spelled with two R's?In: Name Origins |
[Edit] |
One or two "Rs" are okey-dokey, although more commonly spelled "Mary".
Answer
The word marry with two R's means to wed, to join in matrimony.
With one R and a capital M, it's a feminine name.
In some parts of the U.S., those two words are pronounced differently. In fact, Mary, marry, and merry are all pronounced differently. In other areas, you can hardly tell them apart.
