All about the name MU

Meaning, origin, history.

Mu, of Egyptian origin, is often recognized as the sacred vowel sound signifying motherhood and fertility in ancient Egyptian culture. It is derived from the goddess Mut, known for her power, maternity, and nurturing qualities. In some instances, Mu can also be linked to the Polynesian island legend of Mu, a hypothetical lost continent often referred to as the "Island of Origins." Despite these historical associations, today Mu stands alone as a unique first name choice, offering parents an opportunity to bestow upon their child a distinctive and culturally rich moniker.
