Mayson

So I don't know if familial history counts, but I would like to say that I am a girl with the name Mayson. It was originally a surname and my family has kept a record ever since James Mayson, who fought in the American Revolutionary War. I am the tenth generation with Mayson in my name, but the first to have it as my first name. Only the second female in my family to have it. While some people believe that it is spelled with a "y" just to be trendy, it is actually a very old spelling of the name. It may have evolved from the French spelling "Maison".
