Mynor

Mynor is a masculine name primarily used in Latin American countries, particularly Guatemala. It appears to be an alternative spelling of 'Minor,' which has Latin origins meaning 'smaller' or 'lesser.' In Guatemala and other Central American regions, the name gained popularity during the latter half of the 20th century. The unique spelling with a 'y' instead of an 'i' gives the name a distinctive character while maintaining its pronunciation. Mynor is associated with qualities such as reliability and determination. While not widely used internationally, the name maintains steady popularity in specific cultural communities and is occasionally found in the United States, particularly in areas with significant Central American populations.

Pronounced MY-nor.
