From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
This surname is derived from the name of an ancestor. 'the son of Mary,' from the diminutive Mariot; compare.
'Kynson, of Fenham, for the merchet of Mariot his daughter': Raine's History and Antiquities of North Durham.

A family tradition derives it from a town of the same name in Normandy; but no place in that province approaching the sound or orthography is to be found. The name is, however, unquestionably French, and probably one of the many derivatives of the female name Mary. Mariette and Mariotte are still found as surnames in Normandy. See De Gerville, in Mem. Soc. Ant. Norm, for 1844. See also Mariott.
