Considering the surprising changes
that many mimes have undergone says
Miss Laura Alton Payne hi the Inde-
pendent the almost universal lack of
knowledge concerning their origin It
not to be wondered at What is there-
In Peter Snooks to suggest to the
uninitiated that originally It was Pe-
ter at the Seven OaksV Though
Thomas Whltehorse suggests the
American Indian custom In names
originally it was Thomas at the White-
Horse or Thomas at the Sign of the
White Horse u tavern Sidney Is a
corruption of St Deuys Sinclair or St
Clair Seymour of St Maur Janeway
of Genoa Curtis of courteous Anul
tage of hermitage Spark of Sparrow
hawk Emerson and America had the
Mime origin Almerle an old Norman
name Amerigo Ixilug the Italianized
form
Names like things are not always
what they seem Beers and Berry are
not beers and berry but u corrup-
tion of borough ofteu written
bury and bery
In the beginning a single personal
name sullleed For awhile no two per-
sons bore the same name but as a
stock of names accumulated repeti-
tious became common and as the pop-
ulation of the world Increased distinc-
tive names became necessary hence
tve read of John the Baptist and John
the Disciple Darius Hystaspls and Al-
exander the Great Jo bna son of Nun
and Simon Barjouas Simon son of
Jonas
Surnames were first used lu France
becoming general there during the lat-
ter part of the tenth or the fore part of
the eleventh century They were used
hereditarily to some extent however
prior to that time They were Intro-
duced into England at the Normnn
conquest In the year 10CO hut It re-
quired two or three centuries to estab-
lish the body of our nomenclature on
a fixed basis During that time sur-
names became general throughout the
British isles except in Wales in some
parts of which they are unknown to
this day
Surnames arc now general in all
civilized countries I believe except
Turkey In England alone there arc
from 40000 to 00000 existing sur
names
Surnames have been drawn from ev-
ery available source personal names
location occupation deeds of prowess
mental moral and jftyslcal attributes
terms of relationship the human body
farm and household articles buildings
foods and drinks modes of travel Ra
tions and laws custonura > A
geographical terms SUuJlSLaiid l a
sons months and days measures sand
values the joys and ills of life the
animal mineral and vegetable king-
dom and even from the kingdom of
heaven The use of nicknames and
compound terms gave au almost in-
exhaustible source Even oaths be-
came embodied as In Pardoe from par
Dleu
In most countries It Is customary
for the wife to take her husbands
name but in some European countries
it is not unusual for the husband to
append the wifes name particularly
when it is more honorable than his
own Hyphenated names and the
wifes retention of her maiden name
for a middle name are customs grow-
ing In favor In the United States and
Great Britain
Among the earliest names introduced
by the conquest were found Serl Drew
Bryce Harvey Arnold em eagle
Albred now Known as Albert and All
bright Almerle Iugelram Ebrardus
Everard Wnrln Guerlu now War-
ren Ivo Ilauiou Hnmiuond and
Payn originally Pagan After their
adoption as surnames the must of these
became obsolete as personal names
The most popular personal names
since the Domesday Book recorded
them have been John and William but
their derivatives arc too numerous to
mention here Roger Robert and Rich-
ard took a double nickname In II and
D hence Hodge and Dodge Ilobhs
and Dobbs Hicks and Dicks with the
rougher forms of the lust Hlggs and
Dlggs and even Hitch giving rise to
Dickens Hitchcock and HlggliiMMi
Dliuluuthe and other ultlxcs served
un Important part lu the origin of sur
names from personal names The An
gloSaxon llu and cock and Ins
are represented lu Jenkins little
John Illlflicock little Richard
and Browning little Brown the
Norman ot and et lu Eliot little
Ellus and Emmet little Emma
sometimes lot and let Hamlet

en lu Marion and Dickens
Many prellxes were used The Colle
