The surname Bayne was first found in Aberdeen, part of the modern Grampian region, where one of the first times the name arose was a Bean who was a magistrate circa 1210. It is known, however, that the MacBains moved to Invernessshire, as sod bearers to the Chiefs of the great Clan Chattan, a powerful confederation of early Clans. The name literally means  "son of the fair lad,"  and was frequently translated to MacBean .

Spelling variations of the name Bayne include Bean, Beane, Beyn, Bayn, Bene, Bane, Baine, Beine, Bayne, Beyne, Been, Beaine, MacBain, MacBean, MacVain, MacBean, MacVan and many more.
