Name Root:
hamel dūn > Hamilton
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Old English (Anglo-Saxon) surname, composed of two elements: “hamel” from the Proto-Germanic “*hamalaz” (crooked, mutilated, castrated) plus “dūn” (hill, mountain). In turn, the name means “mutilated mountain.” The surname Hamilton probably originated in Hamilton’s village, Leicestershire (which no longer exists), England, but bearers of that name became established in the 13th-century in Lanarkshire, Scotland. A famous bearer of the surname was Alexander Hamilton (1755–1804), a founding father of the United States who was killed in a duel with Aaron Burr.
