Throughout the world, Mineau (Мино 
, Mineau 
) is a rare largely male, but seldom female first name. The forename Mineau is characteristic of Bulgaria, where it is quite a rare principally masculine, but scarcely feminine name, and China, where it is an extremely rare unisex name. More prevalently, Mineau is the last name as well as the forename.
