1455 · Wars of the Roses

Name Meaning

English: occupational name for a Latinist, a clerk who wrote documents in Latin, from Anglo-Norman French latinier, latim(m)ier. Latin was more or less the universal language of official documents in the Middle Ages, displaced only gradually by the vernacular – in England, by Anglo-Norman French at first, and eventually by English.
