What is the meaning of the name Maddin ?

The baby name Maddin is a Unisex name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced MAD-in (IPA: /ˈmædɪn/).

Maddin is English, Irish in Origin.

Maddin is a modern given name with two main roots. In the Irish tradition it aligns with Madden, the Anglicized form of Ó Madáin, from Old Irish madadh “hound, dog,” yielding the sense “little hound.” In German usage Maddin is a dialectal pet form of Martin (from Latin Martinus, “of Mars”), especially associated with Hessian and Palatine speech, and sometimes adopted as an independent name.

The O’Madden clan held territories in east Galway, and Madden became a widespread surname; the leap of Madden/Maddin into first-name use follows the broader surname-as-given-name trend in the English-speaking world since the late 20th century. In German pop culture the spelling Maddin has been popularized by regional media. Variants and related forms include Madden, Madin, Maddyn, and Martin.
