Name Meaning
English (Yorkshire): habitational name from Penistone near Sheffield (Yorkshire), or, less likely, Penistone in Stainmore (Cumbria). The Yorkshire placename is of uncertain etymology, but may derive from Proto-Welsh penn ‘head’ + the Old English placename forming suffix -ing (genitive -inges) + Old English tūn ‘farmstead, estate’. The etymology of the Cumbrian placename is uncertain.
