ADVERTISEMENT.

In collecting materials for a History of Costume of more importance than the little Handbook which has met with so much favour as an elementary work, I was not only made aware of my own deficiencies, but surprised to find how much more vague are the explanations and contradictory the statements of our best authorities than they appeared to me when, in the plenitude of my ignorance, I rushed upon almost untrodden ground, and felt bewildered by the mass of unsifted evidence and unhesitating assertion which met my eyes at every turn.

During the forty years which have elapsed since the publication of the first edition of my ‘History of British Costume’ in ‘The Library of Entertaining Knowledge,’ archæological investigation has received such an impetus by the establishment of metropolitan and provincial peripatetic antiquarian societies, that a flood of light has been poured upon us, by which we are enabled to re-examine our opinions, and discover reasons to doubt, if we cannot find facts to authenticate.

That the former greatly preponderate is a grievous acknowledgment to make after assiduously devoting the leisure of half my life to the pursuit of information on this, to me, most fascinating subject. It is some consolation, however, to feel that, where I cannot instruct, I shall certainly not mislead, and that the reader will find, under each head, all that is known to or suggested by the most competent writers I am acquainted with, either here or on the Continent.

That this work appears in a glossarial form arises from the desire of many artists who have expressed to me the difficulty they constantly meet in their endeavours to ascertain the complete form of a garment, or the exact mode of fastening a piece of armour, or the buckling of a belt, from their study of a sepulchral effigy or a figure in an illumination; the attitude of the personages represented or the disposition of other portions of their attire effectively preventing the requisite examination.

The books supplying any such information are very few, and the best confined to armour or ecclesiastical costume. The only English publication of the kind required, that I am aware of, is the late Mr. Fairholt’s ‘Costume in England’ (8vo. London, 1846), the last two hundred pages of which contain a glossary; the most valuable portion whereof are the quotations from old plays, mediæval romances, and satirical ballads containing allusions to various articles of attire in fashion at the time of their composition. Twenty-eight years have expired since that book appeared, and it has been thought that a more comprehensive work on the subject than has yet issued from the English press, combining the pith of the information of many costly foreign publications, and in its illustrations keeping in view the special requirements of the artist to which I have alluded, would be, in these days of educational progress and critical inquiry, a welcome addition to the library of an English gentleman.

FOOTNOTES

-----

Footnote 1:

Proofs of the ignorance of authors and authoresses in regard to
surnames might be cited to any extent. The novel of _Aurora Floyd_ is
a case in point. When we read the account there given of the ancestry
of the heroine, her Scotch descent, &c., and then remember that Floyd
is but a corruption (through the difficulty of pronunciation) of the
Welsh Lloyd, we may well be pardoned a smile. Walter Scott would never
have so committed himself.

Footnote 2:

The following extract will show how patronymic surnames changed at
first with each successive generation:—‘Dispensation for Richard
_Johnson_, _son_ of _John_ Richardson, of Fishlake, and Evott daug: of
Robert Palmer, who have married, although related in the fourth
degree. Issued from Rome by Francis, Cardinal of St. Susanna, 30th
March, 13th Boniface IX. (1402).’ Test. Ebor. vol. iii. p. 318.

Footnote 3:

Thus we find in the _Manchester Directory_ for 1861, ‘Napoleon
Bonaparte Sutton, tripe-seller,’ and ‘Napoleon Stott, skewer-maker.’
Born, doubtless, during the earlier years of the present century,
their parents have thus stamped upon their lives the impress of that
fearful interest which the name of Napoleon then excited.

Footnote 4:

‘Ithell,’ though now unknown, was once a familiar Christian name.
‘Evan ap Ithell,’ Z.; Jevan ap Ithell, Z.; Ann Ithell, H.H.; Ithell
Wynn, A.A.I. ‘Bethell’ as a surname is still sufficiently common in
the Principality to keep up a remembrance of the fact.

Footnote 5:

‘Howel’ or ‘Hoel’ was at one time a favourite Welsh baptismal name. We
have a ‘Howel le Waleys,’ that is, ‘Howel the Welshman,’ or, as we
should now say, ‘Howell Wallace,’ mentioned in the Parliamentary writs
of 1313. As I shall show by-and-by, our ‘Powells’ may in some cases,
at least, be of more English origin.

Footnote 6:

‘Ot’ and ‘et’ sometimes became ‘elot’ and ‘elet’—‘Robert Richelot’ (w.
15) (from Richard); Crestolot de Eratis (d. d.) (from Christian);
‘Walter Hughelot’ (A.); ‘John Huelot’ (A.) (from Hugh); Constance
Hobelot (A.) (from Hobbe); ‘Hamelet de la Burste’ (Cal. and Inv. of
Treasury); ‘Richard son of Hamelot’ (A.A. 2) (from Hamon). ‘Hamlet’
and ‘Hewlett’ are the commonest representatives of this class in our
existing nomenclature. As a diminutive suffix ‘let’ is found in such
words as ‘leaflet,’ ‘bracelet,’ ‘hamlet,’ or ‘ringlet.’

Footnote 7:

The French have, among others of this class, ‘Guyon,’ ‘Philipon,’
‘Caton’ (Catharine), and ‘Louison.’ Sir Walter Scott, ever most
accurate in his nomenclature, makes ‘Marthon’ to be domestic to
Hameline de Croye (Quentin Durward). None of these reached England.

Footnote 8:

As a Christian name, however, fashion has again brought it into
favour. While the memories that cluster round the name of the Iron
Duke live, ‘Arthur’ can never die. Indeed, there are as many
‘Arthur-Wellesleys’ now as there were simple ‘Arthurs’ before the
battle of Waterloo.

Footnote 9:

One John Godescalde was in 1298 forbidden to dwell in Oxford, owing to
some riot between Town and Gown (Mun. Acad. Oxon. p. 67).

Footnote 10:

Herbert fil. Godman occurs in the ‘Cal. Rot. Pat. in _Turri
Londonensi_.’ As a personal name it will belong to the same class as
‘Bateman,’ ‘Coleman,’ ‘Sweteman.’ Such entries as ‘Bateman Gille,’
‘Thomas Batemanson,’ ‘Richard Batmonson,’ ‘Coleman le Hen,’ ‘Swetman
fil. Edith,’ or ‘Sweteman Textor,’ are not unfrequent. ‘Tiddeman’ is
of the same class. ‘Tydeman le Swarte’ and ‘Tiddeman Bokere’ both
occur in the fourteenth century. All the above are firmly established
as surnames. Having referred to ‘Sweetman,’ I may add that ‘Sweet’
itself was a baptismal name. ‘Swet le Bone’ (A), ‘John Swetson’
(‘State Papers, Domestic, 1619–1623’), ‘Adam Swetcoc’ (A).

Footnote 11:

While all these fuller forms are obsolete as surnames, we must not
forget that most of them still exist curtailed. From early days
‘kettle’ in compounds became ‘kill’ or ‘kell.’ Thus ‘Thurkettle’ has
left us ‘Thurkell’ and ‘Thurkill,’ already mentioned. ‘Osketyl’ has
become ‘Oskell’ (‘Oskell Somenour,’ A. A. 3, vol. ii. p. 184).
‘Ulchetel’ was registered as ‘Ulkell’ and ‘Ulchel’ (W. 12, pp. 19,
20). Our ‘Arkells’ (Sim. fil. Arkill, E.), I doubt not, are
corruptions of ‘Ansketyl’ or ‘Oscetyl’ or ‘Arketel.’

Footnote 12:

Matthew Paris, under date 1047, says of the bishopric of Selsey,
‘Defuncto Grinketel, Selesiensi pontifice, Hecca regis capellanus
successit.’

Footnote 13:

In these same Writs occurs also the name of ‘Hugh Serelson.’ It is
possible they are patronymics formed from ‘Cyril,’ but ‘Serle’ is the
more probable parent.

Footnote 14:

The ‘Parliamentary Writs’ give us ‘Matthew Arnyet,’ the ‘Hundred
Rolls,’ ‘Milisent Arnet.’

Footnote 15:

The ‘Hundred Rolls’ give us a pet addendum in the entry ‘Walter
Auberkin.’

Footnote 16:

‘Richard Amberson’ and ‘Robert Amberson’ may be seen in Barret’s
_History of Bristol_ (index). If not sprung from ‘Ambrose,’ they will
be but a variation of ‘Emberson,’ and one more instance of the change
of vowels referred to a few pages further on.

Footnote 17:

As with ‘Brice’ so it is to the Danes we owe many entries in our older
records of which ‘Christian’ is the root. As a baptismal name it has
always been most common in those parts of the eastern coast of England
which have been brought into contact with Denmark by trade. Such names
as ‘Joan Cristina,’ ‘Brice Cristian,’ or ‘John fil. Christian,’
frequently occur in mediæval registers. Their descendants are now
found as ‘Christian,’ ‘Christy,’ and ‘Christison.’

Footnote 18:

As a proof that ‘Andrew’ and ‘Drew’ were distinct names, we may cite a
fact recorded in Mr. Riley’s _Memorials of London_. In the year 1400,
Drew Barentyn, twice Lord Mayor, came before the Council, asking to
have his name ‘Drew’ set down in the list of those who possessed the
freedom of the city, the scribe having entered it as ‘Andrew.’—pp.
554, 555.

Footnote 19:

‘Warren le Latimer’ occurs in the ‘Rolls of Parliament,’ and ‘Fulco
Fitz-Warren’ in the ‘Cal. Rot. Pat.’ in _Turri Londonensi_.

Footnote 20:

Ivo de Usegate was Bailiff of York in 1271. A few years after we find
the Church of Askam Richard, close to the city, given by William de
Archis and Ivetta his wife to the Nunnery of Monkton. In 1729 Alicia
Iveson was buried in St. Martin’s, Micklegate. Thus in the one city we
have memorials of the male, female, and hereditary use of this name.

Footnote 21:

‘Guido,’ as ‘Wydo,’ is found in such entries as ‘Will. fil. Wydo’ (A),
or ‘Will. fil. Wydonis’ (E), hence ‘Widowson’ and ‘Widdowson.’

Footnote 22:

Matthew Rowlett was Master of the Mint to Henry VIII. (_See Pro. Ord.
Privy Council_.)

Footnote 23:

‘Robinet of the Hill’ (Y). ‘Richard Robynet’ (H). ‘William Robertot’
(A).

Footnote 24:

We find the diminutive of this form in the name of ‘John Dobynette,’
who is mentioned in an inventory of goods, 1463. (_Mun. Acad. Oxon._)

Footnote 25:

The diminutive ‘Richelot’ was by no means unknown in England.
‘Rikelot, tenant at Wickham’ (Domesday of St. Paul: Cam. Soc.),
‘Robert Richelot’ (Great Roll of the Pipe), ‘Robert Richelot’
(Feodarum Prioratus Dunelm. Sur. Soc.). ‘Rickett’ is probably a
corruption of this.

Footnote 26:

The Norman ‘Diccon’ was corrupted into ‘Diggon.’ Spencer begins one of
his pastorals thus, Welsh-like:—

‘Diggon Davie, I bid her “Good-day,”
Or Diggon her is, or I missay.’

‘Diccon’ was popular among the English peasantry from the twelfth to
the eighteenth century.

Footnote 27:

A Richard Mileson entered C. C. Coll., Cam., in 1659 (Masters’ Hist.
C.C. Coll.). Edward Myleson occurs in the Calendar to Pleadings
(Elizabeth).

Footnote 28:

This rivalry seems to have made its mark upon the popular
superstitions of our forefathers, for to this day the _ignis fatuus_
of our marshy districts is called either ‘Will-a-Wisp’ or
‘Jack-a-Lanthorn.’ It at least reminds us that there was a day when
every country clown was either ‘Jack’ or ‘Will.’

Footnote 29:

A certain John Willimote, a taverner, was sworn before the Chancellor
of Oxford University to sell good beer, 1434. (Mun. Acad. Oxon., p.
595). ‘Williametta Cantatrix.’ (Rot. Lit. Clausarum).

Footnote 30:

A curious spelling of this is found in the entry, ‘Haunce, the Luter,
ii.s—vi.d.’ (_Privy Purse Exp. Princess Mary_, p. 104.) ‘Hankin Booby’
was the common name for a clown. (_Chappell’s English Songs_, i. 73.)

‘Thus for her love and loss poor Hankin dies,
His amorous soul down flies.’

_Musarum Deliciæ_, 1655.

Footnote 31:

‘Jack’ was really the nickname of Jacobus or James. Jacques was the
common name among the peasantry of France, and as a national sobriquet
was to that country what John was to England. On its introduction to
ourselves, it seems to have been tacitly accepted as but a synonym for
John, and has been used as such ever since.

Footnote 32:

‘Sir John’ (‘sir’ being the simple old-fashioned title of respect, as
in ‘sir knight,’ ‘sir king,’ &c.) was the familiar expression for a
priest. Bishop Bale speaks of them as ‘babbling Sir Johns.’ Bradford,
too, writing on the Mass, asks, ‘Who then, I say, will excuse these
mass-gospellers’ consciences? Will the Queen’s highness? She shall
then have more to do for herself than, without hearty and speedy
repentance, she can ever be able to answer, though Peter, Paul, Mary,
James, John, the Pope and all his prelates, take her part, with all
the singing “Sir Johns” that ever were, are, and shall be.’—_Bishop
Bradford’s Works._ Park. Soc., p. 391.

Footnote 33:

Thus Thomas Hale, a Puritan, writing in 1660 against May Games, has
some verses in which the Maypole is represented as saying—

I have a mighty retinue,
The scum of all the raskall crew
Of fidlers, pedlers, jayle scaped slaves,
Of tinkers, turncoats, tospot knaves,
Of theeves and scape-thrifts many a one,
With bouncing Besse and jolly Jone.

Footnote 34:

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries a popular sobriquet for
Jane or Joan was ‘Jugg.’ In Espinasses’ ‘Lancashire Worthies,’ Joan,
the daughter of the celebrated Dr. Byrom, is familiarly styled ‘Jugg.’
A song of James I.’s reign says—

‘_Joan_, Siss, and Nell, shall all be ladified,
Instead of hay carts, in coaches shall ride.’

This is Mr. Chappell’s version. (_English Songs_, i. 327.) In Hunter’s
‘Hallamshire,’ it runs—

‘_Jugg_, Cis, and Nell, shall all be ladified.’

A ballad of Queen Anne’s reign represents John, the swain, as singing—

‘My heart and all’s at thy command,
And tho’ I’ve never a foot of land,
Yet six fat ewes and one milch cow,
I think, my Jug, is wealth enow.’
(_Pills to Purge Melancholy_, i. 293.)

Footnote 35:

In the _Athenæ Oxoniensis_ the account of Martin Marprelate begins
‘John Penry, or Ap-Henry, that is, the son of Henry, better known by
the name of Martin Marprelate, or Marpriest, &c.’ (Edit. 1813, vol. i.
p. 591.)

Footnote 36:

An uncouth spelling of this is met with in the De Lacy Inquisition,
where the entry occurs: ‘Henry, son of Holekyn, for 17½ acres of land,
4_s._ 6_d._ (Cheth. Soc., p. 12.) ‘King Hal’ is still familiar to us.

Footnote 37:

‘To Garrett Jonson, for shoes, x_s._ x_d._’ ‘To Garratt Jonson, for
shoes, iii_s._’ (Hous. Exp. Princess Eliz., Cam. Soc., pp. 16–18.)

Footnote 38:

‘The account of Wattare Taylor and Wyllyam Partrynge, beynge
churchewardens, in the xxxii. yere of the rayne of Kyng Henry the
eighth, A.D. 1541.’ (Ludlow: Churchwardens’ Accounts, p. 6, Cam. Soc.)

Footnote 39:

Agnes Antonison is found in the ‘Proc. in Chancery.’ (Elizabeth.)

Footnote 40:

Fuller, in his _Book of Worthies_, writes:—‘St. Anthony is universally
known for the patron of hogs, having a pig for his page in all
pictures, though for what reason is unknown, except, because being a
hermit, and having a well or hole digged in the earth, and having his
general repast on roots, he and hogs did in some sort enter common
both in their diet and lodging.’

Footnote 41:

Thus in the comedy of the ‘Western Lass’ (circa 1720) the heroine
sings:—

‘Is Love finer than money,
Or can it be sweeter than honey?
I’m, poor girl, such a Toney,
Evads, that I cannot guess.’

Footnote 42:

‘To our well-beloved servaunt, Antony Lambeson.’
(Grants of Ed. V. Cam. Soc.)

Footnote 43:

‘Walter fil. Kitte.’ (Household Exp. Bishop Swinfield, p. 170, Cam.
Soc.)

Footnote 44:

In the ‘Romaunt of the Rose,’ it is said—

‘For right no more than Gibbe, our cat,
That awaiteth mice and rattes to killen,
Ne entend I but to beguilen.’

In Peele’s ‘Edward I.,’ too, the Novice says to the Friar—

‘Now, Master, as I am true wag,
I will be neither late, nor lag,
But go and come with gossips cheer,
Ere Gib, our cat, can lick her ear.’

Footnote 45:

Hence the old term, ‘flibber-gib,’ or ‘flitter-gibbett,’ employed by
Latimer, Burton, &c.; and later, by Walter Scott, for one of vile
propensities.

Footnote 46:

A notorious rascal named ‘Gybby Selby’ is mentioned in ‘Calendar of
State Papers’ for 1562. This accords with ‘Robert Gybbyson,’ found in
the Corpus Christi Guild, York, a few years earlier.

Footnote 47:

‘Item, payde to Hew Watson, for a bawdrike to the first belle, x_d._’
(1546.) (Churchwardens’ Accounts at Ludlow, Camden Soc.) ‘Item, for
markynge of Hew Davis’ pew, xii_d._’ (1552.) (do.)

Footnote 48:

‘Hugyn held of the same Earl an oxgang of land.’ (De Lacy Inquisit.,
Cheth. Soc., p. 6.) ‘Huckin’ seems to be a corruption of ‘Hughkin.’
‘Hughkin Byston’ occurs in ‘Wills and Inventories.’ (Cheth. Soc., i.
142.)

Footnote 49:

A servant of King Henry III. was called by the simple and only name of
‘Pentecostes.’ (Inquisit. 13 Ed. I. No. 13.)

Footnote 50:

In the old published orders for the sheriff’s annual riding in the
city of York, occurs this rule among others:—

‘Also, we command that no manner of men walk in the city, nor in the
suburbs by night, without Torch before him, _i.e._ from _Pasche_ to
Michaelmas after ten of the clock, and from Michaelmas to _Pasche_
after nine of the clock.’ These rules are thus prefaced. ‘The
sheriffs, by the custom of the city, do ride to several parts thereof
every year, betwixt Michaelmas and _Midwinter_, that is _Yoole_.’
(‘Hist. and Ant. York,’ vol. ii. p. 54.) Lancashire Easter-eggs are
still called Pace-eggs.—The harder ‘Paske’ is found in Wicklyffe’s
Version of Matt. xxvi. 1:—‘Whaune Jhesus hadde endid all these words
he seide to his disciplis, ye weten that after tweyn days, Paske schal
be made.’

Footnote 51:

Richard Domesdaye was Rector of Caldecote, Norfolk, in 1435.
(Blomefield). This would be synonymous with ‘Termday.’

Footnote 52:

I see, however, from the Clerical Directory, that ‘Hindson’ is still
in existence. A ‘Nicholas Hopperson’ is found in an old college
register for 1582. (Hist. C. C. Coll. Cam.)

Footnote 53:

This name seems to have been very popular in Yorkshire. The instances
given in the index are taken from papers relating to that county.
Thus, again, we find it occurring in the marriage dispensations and
licences of the period. ‘Dispensation from Selow for Richard de
Akerode and Emmotte de Greenwood to marry, they being related in the
fourth degree. Issued from Rome by Jordan Bishop of Alba, Apr. 27th,
3rd Eugenius IV.’ (1433.)—(Test. Ebor. vol. iii. p. 317); ‘Licence to
the Vicar of Bradford to marry Roger Prestwick and Emmote Crossley.
Banns thrice in one day.’ (1466.)—Do. p. 338.

Footnote 54:

We must not forget that at first a certain strangeness must have been
felt in terming a woman by such a contradictory sobriquet as ‘Alice
John_son_’ or ‘Parnel Sim_son_.’ The feminine desinence was
occasionally attempted. ‘Alicia Thom_doghter_’ is found in the ‘Test.
Ebor.’ (Sur. Soc.), ‘Isabella Peers_doghter_’ and ‘Isolda
Peers_doghter_’ in Feod. Prior. Dunelm. (Sur. Soc.), and ‘Avice
Matte_wife_’ in the ‘Issue Roll.’

Footnote 55:

‘Item, I gyffe to Sicille Metcalfe, my sister’s doughter,
20_s._’—‘Richmondshire Wills,’ p. 128.

Footnote 56:

A curious proof of the popularity of this pet form is met with in the
Manor of ‘Ashton-under-Lyne’ (Ch. Soc.). In a community of some 20 or
25 families were the following:—‘Syssot, wife of Patrick,’ ‘Syssot,
wife of Diccon Wilson,’ ‘Syssot, wife of Thomas the Cook,’ and
‘Syssot, wife of Jak of Barsley.’ Robert Syssottysone, Rector of
Lecceworthe, 1478 (xx. 2, p. 187).

Footnote 57:

In the Corpus Christi Guild, York, 1433 (Sur. Soc.), Dyot is feminine.
There is set down, ‘Robert Hayne et Dyot uxor.’ The patronymic
‘Diotson’ is found in the same register.

Footnote 58:

I say ‘perhaps’ because it may be but a corruption of the local
Mapleston.

Footnote 59:

Sabyn or Sabina is frequently met with in the Hundred Rolls, as also
Sybyl, referred to in the line before. A church at Rome was dedicated
to a St. Sabina. Sybyl has bequeathed us ‘Sibson.’ In Cocke Lorelles
Bote, one of the personages introduced is ‘Sybby Sole, mylke wyfe of
Islynton.’

Footnote 60:

Jack and Jill seem ever to have been associated.

Will squabbled in a tavern very sore,
Because one brought a _gill_ of wine no more;
Fill me a quart, quoth he, I’m called Will,
The proverbe is, each _Jack_ shall have his _Gill_.

_Satyricall Epigrams_, 1619.

Footnote 61:

One can scarce forbear a smile to find in the ‘Townley Mysteries’
Noah’s wife, being pressed by her husband to enter the ark, replying—

Sir, for Jak nor for Gille
Wille I turne my face
Tille I have on this hille
Spun a space upon my rok (distaft).

Footnote 62:

We must not forget a once familiar corruption of the diminutive
‘Juliet’ into ‘Juet.’ Such entries as ‘Juetta fil. William’ (T.),
‘Richard fil. Juetta’ (T.), ‘William Juet’ (A.), or ‘Christopher
Jewitson’ (Z.) are very common in the rolls of the xiiith and xivth
centuries. This, in the North, was pronounced ‘Jowet,’ hence such
entries as ‘Roger fil. Jowettæ’ (T.), ‘Jowet Barton’ (W. 11), and our
surname ‘Jowett.’ ‘Jewitt’ also exists. One of this name was a jockey
in the Derby of 1874.

Footnote 63:

So, also, in another place the same translator says: ‘The kyngdom of
hevenes is lyk to a marchaunt that seekith gode margarites, but whanne
he hath founde one precious margarite, he wente and solde alle thingis
that he hadde and boughte it.’—Matt. xiii. 45, 46. Foxe too, in his
‘Book of Martyrs,’ quotes Isidorus to the effect that John the Apostle
‘turned certain pieces of wood into gold, and stones by the seaside
into margarites.’—Vol. i. p. 28, edit. 1844.

Footnote 64:

‘Barbara,’ as another Greek virgin-martyr, may be set beside Margaret.
‘Barbe’ was the French form. As we shall see by-and-by, our
‘Simbarbes’ and ‘Simbarbs’ hail from St. Barbe in Normandy. (Jordan de
St. Barbe, M., Thomas Seyntbarbe, B.) The Hundred Rolls register three
pet forms as surnames. ‘Bertol Babbe,’ ‘John Barbot,’ and ‘Nicholas
Barbelot.’ The latter belongs to the class in _elot_ of which
‘Robelot,’ ‘Hewelot’ and ‘Hamelot’ are instances.

Footnote 65:

The various forms of the diminutive are found as Christian names in
the ‘Manor of Ashton-under-Lyne’ (Ch. Soc.), where occur such entries
as ‘Magot, that was wife of Richard,’ ‘Merget of Staley,’ ‘Marget of
Stanly,’ ‘Mergret, that was wife of Hobbe.’—pp. 96–7.

Footnote 66:

Since writing the above, I find several notices in Brand’s ‘Popular
Antiquities’ which, while corroborating the view I have taken, shed a
clearer light as to Maid Marian’s other sobriquet of ‘Malkin.’ In his
allusion to the Morris dances, he quotes Beaumont and Fletcher as
saying—

‘Put on the shape of order and humanity,
Or you must marry Malkin, the May-lady.’

Thus far, then, adding this to Mr. Halliwell’s quotation, we find that
Maid Marian for several centuries was also ‘Malkin.’ But we must
remember that it was during this very period that Robin Hood and his
mistress were popularly believed to be Robert, Earl of Huntingdon, and
Matilda, daughter of Lord Fitzwalter. That the May Queen, therefore,
should be occasionally styled ‘Malkin’ will appear natural enough if
we accept the view of the origin of that name as recorded in the text.
But it may be asked how did she get the sobriquet of ‘Marian’? Perhaps
Mr. Steevens’s quotation from an old play, ‘The Downfall of Rob. Earl
of Huntingdon,’ dated 1401, may help us—

‘Next ’tis agreed (if thereto she agree)
That fair Matilda henceforth change her name;
And, while it is the chance of Robin Hoode
To live in Sherwodde a poor outlaw’s life,
She by Maid Marian’s name be called.’

Footnote 67:

It has been thought by some that our ‘Makins’ and ‘Makinsons’ are from
Matthew, and not in any way connected with feminine nomenclature. This
may be so, for although there is the entry ‘Maykina Parmunter’ in the
Parliamentary Rolls, there is also ‘Maykinus Lappyng’ in Materials for
Hist. Reign of Henry VII.

Footnote 68:

Thomas Mawdeson (F. F.) would lead one to suppose that Mawson was a
direct corruption. It may be so, but ‘Maw’ itself seems to have
existed as a pet form of Maud. In the ‘De Lacy Inquisition’ (1311)
there occurs ‘Richard, son of Mawe, for 25 acres, etc.’—p. 10 (Chelt.
Soc.)

Footnote 69:

The preceding paragraphs will sufficiently answer, I doubt not, the
questions of correspondents in ‘Notes and Queries,’ as to whether we
have _any_ surnames derived from female baptismal names.

Footnote 70:

Elizabeth came into use too late to leave any mark upon our surnames.
I have not come across, to the best of my remembrance, a single
instance in any record earlier than the fifteenth century. ‘Bess,’ or
‘Bessie,’ was the first pet name formed from it, and this very
probably began to grow into favour about the time of Elizabeth
Woodville’s marriage. With the proud imperious Queen Bess, however,
came in every conceivable variety that could be played upon the name,
‘Betsey,’ or ‘Betsy,’ ‘Betty,’ ‘Eliza,’ ‘Lizzie,’ and ‘Libbie’ being
the favourites. The first ‘Bessie’ I find is that of ‘Bessye Tripps,’
1558; the first ‘Betty’ being that of ‘Bettye Sheile,’ 1580, both
being in a Newcastle will. Betty for two centuries was, perhaps, the
form most in favour in aristocratic circles. How fickle is fashion! It
is entirely tabooed there in the nineteenth.

Footnote 71:

Thomas and John Ibson are recorded in the ‘Corpus Christi Guild,’
York. (Surt. Soc.)

Footnote 72:

‘George Hall et Ezota uxor ejus.’ York Guild (W. 11).

Footnote 73:

‘Hamne, son of Adecok, held 29 acres.’ (De Lacy Inquis. p. 19, Ch.
Soc.)

Footnote 74:

A proof that this origination is correct is found in a York will dated
1391. William de Kyrkby bequeaths articles to ‘Evæ uxori Johannes
Parvying,’ and to ‘Willielmo de Rowlay,’ and then at the close he
speaks of them as the aforementioned ‘Evotam et dictum Willielmum
Rowlay.’ (Test. Elor., vol. i. p. 145–6. Surt. Soc.) An old London
record, dated 1379, contains amongst other names those of ‘Custance
Busshe’ and ‘Evota de Durham.’ The owner would be familiarly known
among her acquaintances as ‘Evote’ or ‘Evette.’ (_Memorials of
London_, p. 435.)

Footnote 75:

‘Sacred to the memory of George Higgott,’ etc. Bonsall Church,
Derbyshire. The more common form is ‘Higgett.’

Footnote 76:

‘Dawe Robson, et Alicia uxor ejus.’ (W. 11.)

Footnote 77:

‘Damsel’ is, of course, the diminutive of this. As a surname, it is
found in the cases of ‘Simon Damesell’ (H.R.) and ‘Lawrence Damysell’
(W. 2). Other diminutives are met with in ‘Damietta Porcell’ (Hist.
and Ant. Survey, index), ‘Damietta Avenell’ (F. F.), ‘Dametta fil.
Morell’ (D. D.); hence as surnames our ‘Damets,’ ‘Dametts,’ ‘Damiots,’
and ‘Domitts.’ Entries like ‘Alice Damyett’ (Z), ‘Hugh Damiot’ (A),
‘Henry Damett’ (R), and ‘Henry Domet’ (A) are common.

Footnote 78:

Thomas Jordanson and Margery Jordanson occur in ‘Three Lancashire
Documents’ (Cheth. Soc.).

Footnote 79:

‘Jud,’ now the pet form of George, was formerly that of Jordan. In
Gower’s lines, already quoted, it is said—

‘Hudde’ ferit, quem ‘Judde’ terit,

This reminds us of Aron Judde in the Hundred Rolls.

Footnote 80:

Dean Stanley seems to have the impression that this custom was
confined to the pilgrims of Italy and Spain. In his _Sinai and
Palestine_, page 333, he says: ‘The name of the river has in Italy and
Spain, by a natural association, been turned into a common Christian
name for children at the hour of baptism, which served to connect them
with it.’ Judging by existing traces merely, I doubt whether the
practice was quite so familiar in those countries as our own.

Footnote 81:

Ellicot seems to be a sort of feminine from Elisota. ‘Item do et lego
Elisotæ domicellæ meæ 40_s._’ (Will of William de Aldeburgh, 1391.
Test. Ebor. vol. i. p. 151.) ‘Item, lego Elisotæ, uxori Ricardi
Bustard unam vaccam et 10_s._’ (Will of Patrick de Barton, 1391. Test.
Ebor. vol. i. p. 155.)

Footnote 82:

We cannot but believe, however, that in many instances these two are
but the offspring of ‘Alice,’ at this period one of the most popular
of female names. Nor must we forget that Alison was itself a personal
name, this being the Norman-French pet form of Alice, after the
fashion of Marion, Louison, Beaton, etc. We are all acquainted with
the ‘Alison’ of the ‘Canterbury Tales’—

‘This Alison answered: Who is there
That knocketh so? I warrant him a thefe.’

We meet with it again in an old Yorkshire will: ‘Item, to Symkyn, and
Watkyn and Alison Meek, servandes of John of Bolton, to ilk on of yaim
(them) 26_s._ 8_d._’ (Test. Ebor., vol. iii p. 21. Surtees. Soc.) This
name is found in our more formal registers in such an entry as ‘Alison
Gelyot.’ (Parl. Rolls.) With regard to ‘Alis’ and ‘Elis,’ and ‘Alison’
and ‘Elison,’ recorded in the text, I may remind the reader that A and
E were all but convertible letters with the Normans. One of their
favourite female names, that of ‘Aveline,’ is found equally often as
‘Eveline,’ and in the form of ‘Evelyn’ it came down to the
distinguished writer of the seventeenth century. ‘Arnold’ and
‘Ernold,’ ‘Americ’ and ‘Emeric,’ ‘Amelia’ and ‘Emilia,’ ‘Anota,’ and
‘Enota,’ and ‘Amelot’ and ‘Emelot’ are but other instances in point.

Footnote 83:

I am confirmed in my view by finding ‘Eliot’ registered as ‘Alyott.’
‘Alyott de Symondston held half an oxgang of land, xix_d._’ (De Lacy
Inquisition (1311) Cheth. Soc.)

Footnote 84:

Perrin was formed from ‘Pierre,’ as ‘Huggin’ from Hugh or ‘Colin’
from Nicol. ‘The wife of Peryn’ is mentioned in ‘Manor of
Ashton-under-Lyne’ (Ch. Soc.), p. 97. Perrot, or Parrot, represents
also the French diminutive. ‘Alan Fitz-Pirot was a benefactor to St.
Alban’s Monastery.’ (See Clutterbuck’s _Hertford_, Appendix, vol.
i.) Prince Edward used to call the favourite, Piers Gaveston, by the
familiar title of ‘Perot.’ (See _Notes and Queries_, vii. 280, and
Lower on ‘Perrot.’)

Footnote 85:

There can be little doubt that ‘Potts’ comes from ‘Philpotts.’ We
light upon a ‘Thomas Potkin’ (H.H.), proving that the abbreviation was
in use.

Footnote 86:
