Mànas (M)>

Mànas (male)

Variants:Maghnus (M) Magnus (M) Mànus (M)
   
Source(s): The Oxford Names Companion, OUP
Notes:

Scottish Gaelic form of Magnus [q.v.], from Latin "great".

Note: Whyte gives Mànus as both the Irish and the Scottish Gaelic form of Magnus [q.v.]. However ONC gives Mànas as the Scottish Gaelic form and Maghnus as the Irish Gaelic form, the latter Anglicized as Manus (unaccented!).
