You're incorrect. Its actually spelled:

Ma'am, pronounced as mam, as in "Yes ma'am" or "No ma'am": Used as a form of polite address for a woman.

Ma'ma doesn't spell anything correctly, but is closest to Mama. Trying to come off as educated begins with proper spelling & grammar. You should look into it.
