More info:

Ria is a nickname of the name Maria, which is a Latin variant of the Greek name Mariam, which is derived from the Hebrew name Miryam. Miryam's meaning is unclear. The most likely origin is from an Egyptian name based on either "mry" (beloved) or "mr" (love). This etymology is given more credence due to the name occurring in conjunction with other names/people (in the Bible) also having Egyptian roots.
