Name Meaning
English: perhaps an altered form of Bamlett, a name found in Devon, Surrey, and Kent in the 16th century. Its origin is uncertain, but it may be a variant of the Kent surname Pamp(h)let, from the Old French and Middle English female personal name Pamphilet, a diminutive of Old French Pamphile (Greek Pamphilos, the name of a martyr of the 4th century).
History: Ambrose Bamblet was transported to VA in 1690, probably to New Kent Co. William Bramlitt or Bramlett was living in VA in the early 1700s, but his relationship to Ambrose is unknown.
