Marelis

Meaning of Marelis

Imagine a name that glides across the tongue like a gentle salsa swirl. Marelis (muh-REH-lis) does just that. It springs from the union of María and Elis—two queens of names dancing together in a tropical breeze. María whispers of a beloved mother. Elis hums with a solemn oath to the divine. Together they bloom into something uniquely vibrant. Marelis glows like sunrise over palm fronds on a warm island shore. It’s rare, too. Only seven to nine little girls proudly wore it each year in the late 2000s in the U.S., hovering near the top 1,000. But that rarity makes it all the more special. It’s a name built for a bright spirit. A name that feels like a fiesta each time it’s spoken.
