What does Maison mean?
Maison means “House in French”.
Maison is the French word for “house,” used as a given name in English-speaking settings. Its spelling resembles Mason, but the words have different meanings: Mason refers to a worker in stone, while maison names a house. A family may intend the word name or choose the spelling for its resemblance to Mason.
French pronunciation is also different from the usual English pronunciation of Mason, so the spelling does not guarantee a single spoken form. That distinction is worth deciding deliberately before choosing the name. Maison can carry a personal association with home, but that symbolism should be described separately from its simple French dictionary meaning.
