If you‘re looking for a strong boy's name, Mayne hits the nail on the head. This moniker is most likely a shortened form of Maynerd or Maynard, two titles that ultimately derive from the German Meginhard. Meaning “brave strength” or “hard power,” Mayne can remind your little one to stand up for themselves and look out for those around them. Mayne could also be related to Main, an English place name with multiple translations. From “strength” and “might” to “rock” or “stone,” Main emboldens Mayne with its toughness.
