Neimantas
NEĨMANTAS
Etymology
Maybe a compound surn. Cf. also Nei̇̃-montas, Nei̇̃-muntas (see). Considering that these are compound surnames of Baltic origin (nei-mant-), it should be noted that the suffix is very rare in non-Baltic personal names - cf. maybe just OPr. Nay-bute, Nay-sude ¹, Ney-moсo, Ney-protirs ². See also A. Salys, 1933, p. 91. For mant- see Mañgin.
