English (Yorkshire): habitational name from any of the many places called Normanton in Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Rutland, and Yorkshire. The placenames derive from the Old English personal name Northman or Old English northman (genitive singular northmannes, genitive plural northmana) ‘Norseman, Scandinavian’ + tūn ‘farmstead, settlement’.
