Marq is a masculine name with French and Latin roots. A fun twist on the name Mark, this name comes from the Latin name Marcus, translating to “dedicated to Mars.” In Roman mythology, Mars is the god of war and can give your little one plenty of mystical inspiration and a fighting spirit. Marq may also come from Marquis, which refers to a nobility rank and can translate to “border country ruler.” This can be a great way to elevate baby’s confidence and inspire their future leadership skills. For a more snugly aesthetic, Marq may also come from the indigenous Quechua word marq'ay, meaning “embrace.” For a name that reminds baby that they’ll always be safe in your arms, this name can definitely leave a Marq.
