"Majo" word meaning "pretty" or "nice looking" (synonymous with bonito). This meaning survives in modern Spanish. A more recent twist in the meaning turns majo into a simple synonym of simpatico.

Majo (masc.) or Maja (fem.) were terms for people from the lower classes of Spanish society, especially in Madrid, who distinguished themselves by their elaborate outfits and sense of style in dress and manners; the English term dandy carries a similar, but not identical meaning. They flourished from the late 18th to early 19th century, and to some extent later. Majos of both sexes were a favourite subject of the painter Francisco Goya.
