Onomastics – Using Naming Patterns in Genealogy
Onomastics – Using Naming Patterns in Genealogy 1. Where did your family live before coming to America? 2. When did your family come to America? 3. Where did your family first settle in America? Background Onomastics or onomatology is the study of proper names of all kinds and the origins of names. Toponomy or toponomastics, is the study of place names. Anthroponomastics is the study of personal names. Names were originally used to identify characteristics of a person. Over time, some of those original meanings have been lost. Additionally, patterns developed in many cultures to further identify a person and to carry on names within families. In genealogy, knowing the naming patterns of a cultural or regional group can lead to breaking down brick walls. Your great-great-grandfather’s middle name might be his mother’s maiden name – a possible clue – depending on the naming patterns used in that time and place. Of course, as with any clues, you need to find documents to back up your guesses, but the clues may lead you in the right direction. Patronymics Surnames based on the name of the father, such as Johnson and Nielson, are called patronyms. Historically people only had one name, but as the population of an area grew, more was needed. Many cultures used patronyms, with every generation having a different “last name.” John, the son of William, would be John Williamson. His son, Peter, would be Peter Johnson; Peter’s son William would be William Peterson. Patronyms were found in places such as Scandinavia (sen/dottir), Scotland Mac/Nic), Ireland (O’/Mac/ni), Wales (ap/verch), England (Fitz), Spain (ez), Portugal (es), Italy (di/d’/de), France (de/des/du/le/à/fitz), Germany (sen/sohn/witz), the Netherlands (se/sen/zoon/dochter), Russia (vich/ovna/yevna/ochna), Poland (wicz/wski/wsky/icki/-a), and in cultures using the Hebrew (ben/bat) and Arabic (ibn/bint) languages. -

International Naming Conventions NAFSA TX State Mtg
1 2 3 4 1. Transcription is a more phonetic interpretation, while transliteration represents the letters exactly 2. Why transcription instead of transliteration? • Some English vowel sounds don’t exist in the other language and vice‐versa • Some English consonant sounds don’t exist in the other language and vice‐versa • Some languages are not written with letters 3. What issues are related to transcription and transliteration? • Lack of consistent rules from some languages or varying sets of rules • Country variation in choice of rules • Country/regional variations in pronunciation • Same name may be transcribed differently even within the same family • More confusing when common or religious names cross over several countries with different scripts (i.e., Mohammad et al) 5 Dark green countries represent those countries where Arabic is the official language. Lighter green represents those countries in which Arabic is either one of several official languages or is a language of everyday usage. Middle East and Central Asia: • Kurdish and Turkmen in Iraq • Farsi (Persian) and Baluchi in Iran • Dari, Pashto and Uzbek in Afghanistan • Uyghur, Kazakh and Kyrgyz in northwest China South Asia: • Urdu, Punjabi, Sindhi, Kashmiri, and Baluchi in Pakistan • Urdu and Kashmiri in India Southeast Asia: • Malay in Burma • Used for religious purposes in Malaysia, Indonesia, southern Thailand, Singapore, and the Philippines Africa: • Bedawi or Beja in Sudan • Hausa in Nigeria • Tamazight and other Berber languages 6 The name Mohamed is an excellent example. The name is literally written as M‐H‐M‐D. However, vowels and pronunciation depend on the region. D and T are interchangeable depending on the region, and the middle “M” is sometimes repeated when transcribed. -
Scottish Naming Customs Craig L
Scottish Naming Customs Craig L. Foster AG® [email protected] Origins of Scottish Surnames Surnames are said to have begun to be used by Scottish nobility at the direction of King Malcolm Ceannmor in about 1061. William L. Kirk, Jr. “Introduction to the Derivation of Scottish Surnames,” Clan Macrae (1992), http://www.clanmacrae.ca/documents/names.htm “In some Highland areas, though, fixed surnames did not become the norm until the 18th century, and in parts of the Northern Isles until the 19th century.” “Surnames,” ScotlandsPeople, https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/guides/surnames Types of Scottish Surnames Location-Based Surnames Some people were named for localities. For example, the surname “Murray from the lands of Moray, and Ogilvie, which, according to Black, derives from the barony of Ogilvie in the parish of Glamis, Angus. Tenants might in turn assume, or be given, the name of their landlord, despite having no kinship with him.” Sometimes surnames referred to a specific topographical feature of the landscape such as a river, a loch, a hill, etc. Some examples might include: Names that contain 'kirk' (as in Kirkland, or Selkirk) which means 'church' in Gaelic; 'Muir' or names that contain it (means 'moor' in Gaelic); A name which has 'Barr' in it (this means 'hilltop' in Gaelic). “Surnames,” ScotlandsPeople, https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/guides/surnames Occupational Surnames A significant amount of surnames come from occupations. So a smith became known as Smith or Gow (Gaelic for smith), a tailor became Tailor/Taylor, a baker was Baxter, a weaver was Webster, etc. “Surnames,”ScotlandsPeople, https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/guides/surnames Descriptive Surnames “Nicknames were 'descriptional' ie. -
