I think this name would be more pronounced Mare-ee. But I guess it looks good as a Marie sounding name too.

This name is hideously common in Finland. It's a very boring, bland name that parents seem to have picked because they haven't felt like giving the name much thought, maybe because some of them have been less enthusiastic about parenting to begin with. This is also commonly combined with another name, usually Anne, as in Anne-Mari. It's quite plain on its own.

Actually, the song played at wedding receptions in Scotland is "Mairi's Wedding" not "Mari's Wedding." Although it's actually a common spelling mistake and is sometimes called "Mary's Wedding" or "Marie's Wedding."
