From de gmh mane, from de goh mana, from de gmw-pro *manu, from de gem-pro *manō mane, from de ine-pro *mon- neck.
In Middle High German there existed a secondary variant gmh man m, whence the plural gmh mene. The modern form de Mähne is from this plural (or from its merger with the original form gmh mane). Cognate with en mane, which see.
