maits

Maits is a proper noun that may appear as a surname in various European contexts. It does not have a widely recognized meaning in English beyond its use as a family name, and there is no consensus on its origin or distribution in standard reference works.

The etymology and geographic spread of the surname Maits are not clearly documented in major onomastic sources. Because it is relatively uncommon and lacks a standardized definition, it is typically encountered only in genealogical records rather than as a common noun or culturally specific term.

Related terms include Mait, a given name used in Estonian and several other languages, which shows a linguistic resemblance to Maits but has distinct usage and origins.
