German and Jewish (Ashkenazic): from Middle High German
mantac, German Montag ‘Monday’. As a German name,
this was a nickname for someone who had a particular association with
this day of the week, probably because he owed feudal service then. As
a Jewish name, it is either ornamental or it may have been adopted or
given with reference to the day of registration of the surname.
