Matan or Mattan (original Biblical translation: Mattan, modern Israeli translation: Matan, Hebrew: מַתָּן, Latin: Matthan) is a Hebrew name, mostly for males in Israel.
It is coming from the word 'gift' and literally means "giving".
A biblical reference for a Mattan as a given name is the story told in Books of Kings about the Baal priest Mattan, killed by the people of the Kingdom of Judah during a revolution.
In the Gospel of Matthew, Matthan is the paternal grandfather of Joseph, father of Jesus.
King Zedekiah's birth name was originally Mattanyahu.
