Mardi (Diedrich Christian Martens, dates unknown)

Given its history of spelling change – Martena tn (1885), Martensgasse (1893), Martinstraße (1907), Мартенская ул. (1907), Martenstraße (1913) – the rumor it was named after a former landowner who had property on the corner of this street and Liivalaia (they no longer connect) may well be true. Apparently renamed (1936-1991) as Lennuki during the Soviet Era.
