What’s in a Name?


What’s in a Name? Katrina Christensen (Scandinavian names) and Ian Heydon (Scottish and English names) got chatting about surnames being patronymic, locative and occupative, which sounds awfully serious but it isn’t! There’s a privately owned village in Norfolk in England called Heydon. Ian stayed there and it is where Monty Python filmed their Village Idiot sketch. Coincidence?
