Globally, Maea (Maea , แม่) is quite a rare predominantly feminine, but very seldom masculine first name. The first name Maea is characteristic of Western Asia, particularly Syria, where it is quite a rare principally female, but scarcely boy's name, Iraq, where it is a rare feminine name, and Jordan. Measured by absolute frequency, it is the most numerous in Syria, Egypt, and Iraq. Very seldom, Maea is the last name as well as the forename.
