Name Meaning

Norman, English: (i) variant of Finnemore with late medieval or early post-medieval change from -n- to -l-. (ii) locative name, perhaps also from a minor place in Slimbridge (Gloucs), of uncertain etymology, recorded as Fyllymore in 1562 ( Gloucs Archives ), which is apparently the same as Fulemore recorded between 1200 and 1212 ( Berkeley Castle Muniments ). (iii) locative name, perhaps also from Fullamoor in Whitchurch (Devon). Compare Roger de Fulemore, 1309 in Patent Rolls (Devon); Roger Folemore, 1309 in TNA (Devon); [… de] Folamor, 1346 in Place-Names of Devon . The place-name probably derives from Old English fola ‘foal’ + mōr ‘moor’.
