<p>Merri is a feminine name that serves as a diminutive or variation of Meredith, Mary, or Meryl. Its spelling with an 'i' ending gives it a cheerful, bright quality that aligns with its phonetic similarity to the word 'merry,' meaning happy or joyful. The name has Welsh origins when derived from Meredith, meaning 'great lord' or 'sea lord,' though its connection to Mary would give it Hebrew roots meaning 'bitter' or 'beloved.' Merri has never been among the most popular names in the United States but enjoyed some usage particularly in the mid-20th century. It has a friendly, approachable quality that appeals to parents seeking a name that feels warm and unpretentious. The name's brevity and positive connotations make it an endearing choice with vintage charm.</p>
