In summary

Ultimately from Matthaeus, from Koine Greek Ματθαῖος (Matthaîos), several figures in the New Testament including the apostle Matthew, from Hebrew מַתִּתְיָהוּ (Mattiṯyāhū), from מַתָּנַת (“gift, reward”) + יהוה (“YHWH, God”). Doublet of Matthijs and Mattias. Compare French Matthieu and Matthias.
