I love the meaning of this name and although to me it sounds unattractive as a whole, I like the shortened version Mayn.

I really like the meaning and sound of this name. If we named our son Maynard, I would call him Maddie for short. My mother and brother hate it though. Is it a good idea to name your baby something your family hates!?

From Desperate Housewives, Susan and Mike's son is named Maynard. There's a wonderful episode dedicated to the selection of this name. Though they usually refer to the kiddo as "M.J."
