What's in a Name?

Do not forget that the surname Mygrant was derived from the old German name Maikrantz. The surname may be spelled as above or Maikranz, Maykrantz, Meykrantz, Mykrantz, Mykranz, Mykraunz, Mygrauntz, Migrants, Mygrantz, and Mygrants. It seems they are all spellings for what we now spell Mygrant. Translation of the name: Mai equals month of May, kranz equals wreath/ring. So one tends to believe the original spelling to have been Maikranz.
