Meno is Greek in Origin.
Meno is a masculine given name with dual roots. In Greek it reflects the name Menon (Ménōn), linked to the verb menō “to remain, abide,” yielding senses like steadfast, enduring, or abiding. The name is best known through Plato’s dialogue Meno and historical figures such as Menon of Pharsalus in Xenophon’s Anabasis, giving it a distinct classical-philosophical aura. English usage often adopts the shorter form Meno from the dialogue’s title.
In Frisian and Low German traditions, Meno also appears as a short form of medieval names built on the Germanic element megin/mein “strength, might,” making it a cousin of Menno and Meino; related Frisian variants include Menko. Though uncommon internationally, it persists in the Netherlands and northern Germany. Variants and related forms: Menon (Greek), Menno, Meino, Menko. Typical pronunciations are MEE-no or MEH-no, depending on language.
