How did Maine get its name?

In a paper read before the American Antiquarian Society Hamilton R. Staples said that the name of Maine was given to that State descriptively, since in the original charter it was considered "the Mayne Land of New-England."Maine got its name from when British sailors called it the main land. The spelling is an old English version of the word main. It got its nickname The Pine Tree State because 80 percent of the state is covered in forest .That is at least one possibility.

How was Maine named?

Most people say Maine's name evolved in this way: Because of Maine's many islands, early sailors, fishermen, and explorers may have spoken of "the main" or the "main land." This became "Maine." Another theory holds that it comes from a province in France of the same name. It may have been chosen to compliment the queen of Charles I, Henrietta Maria, who had inherited the province in France.
