Around the globe, Maitong (Maitong 
, ไหมทอง , ไม่ต้อง) is a rare largely feminine, but seldom boy's forename. The given name Maitong is characteristic of Thailand, where it is a rare largely female, but uncommonly masculine name, and the United States, where it is an extremely rare principally female, but very seldom boy's name. More prevalently, Maitong is the last name as well as the forename.
