    Name Meaning

    English (North and Yorkshire): perhaps a variant of Uppleby with an intrusive -m-. Uppleby may be from Middle English up in by ‘up in the village’ (i.e. at the top end), a name which is recorded in Haisthorpe (East Yorkshire) in 1297. The development to Uppiby and Uppilby can be seen in villages not far away, such as Seamer, Old Malton, New Malton, and Buckton. From East Yorkshire the name migrated to North Lincolnshire, on the Humber, and apparently to Yorkshire, where the presumed variant Umpleby is the only recorded form.
