Facts About
Hamill
Hamill is thought to be a locational surname, originating from one of any places so-called or similarly spelled across Britain. Locational surnames were traditionally given to someone who had moved away to a new area, whereby they were assigned the name of their original home as a surname to differentiate them from the other townspeople. The name itself is thought to come from the word ‘Hain’ found in Medieval England. This word is said to mean ‘hawthorn’ and was also found used as a first name. Taking its meaning and combining it with ‘mill’ suggests a town name meaning ‘the town with the mill in the hawthorns’. |
