Comments for the name Marcus

Comments for MARCUS:

Hiya! Marcus is a very common name in Sweden. I don't know if it is necessary to mention in description but I wanted to tell you anyways. [noted -ed]

I'm almost 100% certain that I've read in a book about Swedish names that Marcus/Markus means "protected by Mars"/"son of Mars". Though I can't say for sure so I will look it up later.
