The Story of Masen

Masen is an alternative spelling of Mason, an occupational English surname turned given name derived from the Old French word masson or macon, meaning a worker in stone. Stonemasons were highly skilled craftsmen in medieval Europe who built the great cathedrals and castles. The -en spelling variant gives it a slightly more modern, surname-style feel.

Mason became one of the fastest-rising boys' names in America in the 2010s, partly boosted by Kourtney Kardashian naming her son Mason Disick in 2009. The variant Masen appeals to parents who want the same sound with a distinctive spelling.

Masonry and stonework represent the foundation of civilization's greatest architectural achievements. Freemasonry, though unrelated etymologically, has given the concept of the mason additional cultural and fraternal significance.
