The Normans brought the name into England as “Hamo" and “Mamon.” It was not long, however, before the jgiven name began to develop new { forms, such as “Hamond" and “Ham- {mond,” the latter quickly becoming | more widespread. In many cases the !patronymic or family name, was formed by the prefixing of the Nor- man “Fitz,’ megning “son o In thers, the surndme formed by he addition of the ending “son.” But “Hammondson” was a little too clumsy i for the average British tongue, and so | did not endure long being shortened ! variously to Hammond and Ha { monds.
