Question

speel said it means little one but where does it come from is it english

the word "MINTO"

Answer 1

Hi, it seems as if it is actually an English name...
but probably originated from Europe, during the great migration.
Maybe from Portugal or Spain... in which case, one would have to have some knowledge of those languages to be able to translate the actual meaning.
Meantime, you may like to go to www.houseofnames.com and type in the word Minto... you will learn more about the origin.

Answer 2

The Canadian and Australian Mintos are all named after Gilbert Elliot-Murray-Kynynmound, 4th Earl of Minto, a popular British peer who served as Governor-General of Canada and also as viceroy of India. He may be the namesake of the American Mintos as well, but they may alternatively be named after Minto, a village near Hawick, Roxburghshire, from which the Earls of Minto get their name.
