in this article, from an anonymous scholar towards the bottom, he or she says that in aramaic "Marya" refers the Lord God and "Mara" refers only to Jesus Christ. could there have been a textual mistake where they mistakenly referred to Jesus Christ as "Marya" instead of "Mara"?

in another webpage, <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://jehovah.freewebpage.org/">http://jehovah.freewebpage.org/</a><!-- m -->
"In the "Syriac/English Dictionary" by Payne Smith it states on p 298 it says the following: " Mara???" "??????.Mara??? and Marya??? the latter form is used only of the LORD God and in the Peshitta Version of the O.T. represents the Tetragram-maton."" in the syriac, "Marya" wasn't used for Jesus Christ according to the page, so could it be possible the peshitta has the error?
