Male Ukrainian name (Марк)
Mark (Ukrainian: Марк) is a male name of Latin origin. Traditionally interpreted as «dedicated to Mars» (god of war) or simply «warrior, manly».
The name derives from Latin Marcus — one of the most common Roman praenomina (personal names) of ancient Rome. By the most likely etymology, the name comes from the theonym Mars (god of war). In Christian tradition the name entered through the Apostle and Evangelist Mark — author of the second Gospel of the New Testament, disciple of the Apostle Peter, patron saint of the city of Venice, where his relics are kept. It came to the Slavs through Greek-Byzantine (Μᾶρκος, Mârkos) and Church-Slavonic literature. In Ukraine Mark is an old, venerated name; it was borne by numerous Cossacks and cultural figures.
From Latin Marcus — a common Roman praenomen; probably derived from the theonym Mars (god of war) — «dedicated to Mars, warrior».
