Cognates span Martin (English/French), Martyn (Welsh/English), Marten (Dutch/German), Martín (Spanish), and the feminine Martine/Martina, along with Gaelic Máirtín and Màrtainn.

While Martin has been widespread since late Roman times - boosted by the cult of Saint Martin of Tours - Martayne itself surfaces in records only in recent decades. Usage is rare and largely Anglophone, sometimes treated as unisex, with nicknames such as Marty, Marti, or Tay. The core meaning remains tied to Mars, conveying vigor, courage, and assertiveness.
