Facts About
Hyde
Hyde is thought to be derived from ‘hide’, an Old English word used to describe a piece of land, e.g. a ‘hide of land’. The original bearers of this surname could have been the owners of such a piece of land. A hide of land was a rather significant amount and although it does not suggest vast wealth, the original bearers would most likely have had a comfortable lifestyle. Edward Hyde is a fictional character in the famous novel ‘Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde’ by Scottish author Robert Lois Stephenson. |
