Maron
Maron is a surname and, less commonly, a given name. The name appears in several languages and may have multiple origins. In Syriac Christian tradition, it is associated with Saint Maron (also spelled Maroun), a 4th- to 5th-century monk whose followers founded the Maronite Church in the Levant. The root of the name is sometimes linked to the Syriac title 'Mar,' meaning 'Saint' and used in religious names. Variants include Maroun, Marone, and Marc, reflecting transliteration into Arabic, Italian, French, and English contexts.
In modern times, Maron is used as a surname in Lebanon, Syria, Italy, and among diasporic communities;
