Hello, Can anyone tell me what country the surname SICAR comes from. Thanks. Christine Walsh - Melbourne, Australia

Thank you Gary. It's food for thought.

It was introducted into England by the Normans in the form of 'ROGIER' Found ROTTCHER as a variation of above, but no ROETCHER. I suspect your spelling to be an unlisted variation of ROTTGER, ROTTCHER. Found ROETTGER in the German-American book, but it referred me to 'RUEDIGER', which means "illustrious" + "spear", which would seem to mean it also is a variation of ROGER.

Hello! I was wondering if anyone knows the origins of the following names: WIMPENNY from Manchester, England ROTTGER, ROETCHER, ROETTGER from Germany REGENHARDT from Germany Thanks very much for your time! jamie

Thank you very much Sharon

I have come across the surname of ABEYSEKERA - does anyone have any thoughts on the origins? Many thanks Maureen Norfolk UK

ABEYSEKERA - A Tamil name found in Sri Lanka. Gary Radcliffe [email protected]

PUETT - Found nothing. Just speculating here but "Ap Hugh" would be Welsh for "son of Hugh." The "ett" element would be an added diminutive. Examples of ap disappearing and becoming part of new names are Pritchard for ap Richard, Powell for ap Howell and many others. But the "ett" would probably be French and that is quite a stretch. I did a google search on the name and came up with nothing. Pugh, in its various spellings, may be the root name with the added ett diminutive but there seems to be no certainty regarding this name. Gary Radcliffe [email protected]

The name is deffinately PUETT. My mother-in -laws maiden name. They had some French heritage we are told.

Hi Everybody, I've been going round in circles trying to find the nationality of the surname DEBANFER. I've tried numerous sites but to no avail. Can anyone help please. Christine Walsh - Melbourne, Australia

Are you sure the name isn't supposed to be "PRUETT"? If it is it's English and means the little, valiant fighting man. Source: New Dictionary of American Family Names by E.C. Smith I did come across "PRUETZ", which is German, if this is any help. Barbara [email protected] wrote: > Is there an origin and/or meaning for the name Puett?
