I feel your pain, for the longest of time I was convinced I don't have a weird slavic accent, then I recorded myself talking to colleagues and understood I sounded like I'm from the Czech republic. Took me a while to recover. Although I also figure working for 10+ years around people whose English is heavily accented hasn't done me any favours, particularly because I have this weird habit of matching my interlocutor's pronunciation (otherwise I feel like a pretentious dick :/ ).

Mariemarie sounds vaguely Norwegian/scandi to me.
