We need your help!

Leave it to me to mess this up! My mother clarified to me that my great-grandmother spelled her name "Mariah" instead of "Moriah" as I had first thought. I guess I dreamed that up...anyhow I hope that doesn't have an effect on anyone's vote.

Ok, we need some help here. We know what we are naming the sweet little baby girl but we can't decide on the spelling of her first name. This may be risky but I'm going to post a vote so I can see what everyone else thinks. DON'T be disappointed if we don't go with what you picked but we really can't decide. Here's the info:

I have a grandmother on both my mom and dad's side of the family named Mariah. There are 3 spellings that I have found. I'm not going to give you any of our opinions, but the info below may be helpful in your deciding.

Mariah - form of Mary

Moriah - means God is my teacher; the mountain where Abraham went to sacrifice Isaac is named Mount Moriah; I think my grandmother on my mother's side spelled her name this way

Moriyah - the Hebrew spelling of the above word

We named Nolan Brent after his father. We named Elijah Willson after my side of the family. Names that have meanings and reasons are important to me.

Regardless her middle name will be Grace which is the name of my father's mother.

Ok, so now I'm going to post this and then the poll. Please vote on your favorite.
