They have accents because nearly every country has a different one and that can't be helped!

Although I have yet to find the exact cause of the change in spelling, I can provide the following print history of the word's evolution. While the word "mamma" was created during the Elizabethan renaissance, the word "mum" first appeared in print in 1823. In 1839, this spawned "mummy". It wasn't until 1884 that the O was used in "momma". This was, of course, shortened to "mom" in 1894. My unproven theory is that somebody thought "mother" was spelled with an O so "mamma" should be spelled that way as well.
