Martinus

Used as both the original Latin form of classic Martin, and the official Dutch form. It was a familiar choice in the Netherlands until 2011, appearing on birth certificates, even if Maarten, Martin, Marten, or Martijn may be used in everyday life. More recent years, however, have seen this form drop out of the charts in favor of short, succinct Mart.

Pronounced mar-TY-nus.

As of October 2026, Martinus ranked #8310 for boys in US births in 1993 SSA, peaked at #5190 for boys in 1970.
