Mason

Mason comes from the German name ‘Macian’ and the meaning of Mason is ‘to make’. This was then modified into ‘Macon’ by the French and later anglicized into ‘Mason’ in the Middle Ages. The name Mason translates as ‘making something’. This was also a popular surname, with Mason coming to mean ‘one who works with stones’. In the Bible, masonry was highly regarded as a skill. The Jerusalem Temple was built by these masons under the reign of King Solomon. Though it was destroyed in 586 BC, some of its remains can still be seen today. As a result, the name Mason has come to be associated with strength, power and skill. Mason is still an extremely popular name; in 2020 it ranked 83rd in popularity for American boys' names. Sir George Mason is known for writing the Virginia Declaration of Rights, which later inspired America's Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights.
