Menaye
Pronounced muh-NY /mΙΛnaΙͺ/Medium
Meaning: A modern American coinage in the family of names ending in -nae and -naye, alongside Renae, Janae and Danae. It has no older documented source of its own.Low
History & Origin
Menaye has no recorded etymology. It belongs to the modern American family of names ending in -nae and -naye: Renae, Janae, Denae, Danae. Danae alone has an older history, as a figure of Greek myth, but the others are twentieth-century formations and Menaye is not descended from any of them. We therefore present it honestly as a coinage whose routes are uncertain, rather than borrowing a meaning it does not have (said 'muh-NY').
It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, brisk, and newly emerging.
