Go ahead...I really don't care.
I'm only joking!
Hence the ;D.
Sorry if I offended you at all, I'm just in a good mood...

No, it's not
It's a phonetic English respelling of Mariska, which is a pet form of Mária, the Hungarian form of Maria. In Hungarian, S is pronounced as "sh", hence Marishka in English.
I still prefer Mariska though, since it looks less "sloppy" to me. Jayne Mansfield had a daughter named Mariska by her Hungarian-born husband Miklós "Mickey" Hargitay; Mariska Hargitay is now famous in her own right as Detective Olivia Benson on Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

Just remember - Julia has her own facts, and she never checks to make sure they're actually correct!
....Mariska looks...empty. I don't know why, I likes Marishka better, it looks more complete...
