    Name Meaning

    English (Wiltshire):

    habitational name from Old Norse afnám ‘newly enclosed plot taken from common or undeveloped land’, a frequent minor placename in northern counties, e.g. Avenham Park in Preston (Lancashire) and Aynhems in Rimington (Yorkshire), sometimes with prosthetic H-, as in Haynholme in Draughton (Yorkshire).

    habitational name from Hanham (Gloucestershire), from Old English hānum ‘(at) the stones’, dative plural form of hān ‘stone’. The ending -ham comes by analogy with other placenames with this very common unstressed ending.
