Here in South Africa, Marnus is well known. It's a short form of Hermanus, which of course is just our old friend Herman with a Latin looking ending.There are women and girls called Marna as well!

Eek - blush!I got suspicious as I was typing my previous comment, and phoned my pal Marnus for confirmation. Oops! If the dear old chap isn't Hermanus Marinus, and the Marnus is in his case a kind of merger of the two.In general, Jordan's probably a whole lot righter than me! That'll teach me to generalise from insufficient grounds. (Of course, it won't really ... not on past form ...)

I think Marnus is a form of Marinus (click the link). Marnus is also similar to other names that are forms of Marinus, like Marnie and Marna.
