About the May surname

The modern spelling of May alone is not enough to establish a certain origin. The canonical form used here is “May”; phonetic or spelling differences found in indexes should be checked against the other information in the record. Migration, language shifts, and record transcription can alter a surname over successive generations.

Pronunciation: Mè/mɛ/
