How do you spell this name?

Marissa?  I really like the name but I'm not sure how to spell it.  My husband is Italian and I'm African American, if that matters as to the spelling.

I've seen it spelled Marissa, Marisa, Marrisa even Marrissa...

Also, what's a good middle name?  

Thanks.

Marissa. I like that name. I would have it on our list but I knew a Larissa and think it would be too similar.

I have a cousin spelled Marisa pronounced Mer-EESA. But, I've had a few friends Marisa or Marissa pernounced Mer-ISSA (kind of like Melissa).

The only Marisa I know pronounces it Muh-REE-suh. I like Marissa (Muh-rih-suh) a lot more.

I have a friend who named her DD Marisa Gianna (pronounced Mer-ISSA like Melissa). I personally like it spelled Marissa with 2 S's
