What is the meaning of the name Mas ?

The baby name Mas is a Male name , 1 syllables long and is pronounced Dutch/Frisian: /mɑs/ (MAHS); English: /mæs/ (MASS); Javanese: /mas/ (mas).

Mas is Catalan, Dutch, Frisian, Javanese, Spanish in Origin.

Mas is a compact, cross‑cultural given name with several etymologies. In Catalan it derives from a toponymic term meaning “farmstead” or “country house,” from Latin mansus/mansum; it is common as a surname and occasionally used as a given name or as a clipped form of Tomàs (Thomas). In Indonesian and Javanese settings, Mas functions as a respectful honorific for a young man and echoes Indonesian emas “gold,” making the name suggest “golden” or “precious.” In Japanese diaspora usage, Mas often serves as an English‑friendly short form of Masa‑ names (Masahiro, Masato, Masami), whose meanings vary by kanji, frequently “true,” “just,” or “prosperous.”

Variants and related forms include Masa, Masi, Masu, and the Catalan Tomàs; Spanish Más and Dutch Maas are orthographic or etymological neighbors rather than the same name. Usage rose in the 20th century through migration and bilingual naming.
