Last Name LAMMING

Summary/Contribute


Meaning The son of Lanbert, from the nickname Lamb and diminutive Lamb-in. The 'g' in Laming, etc, is excrescent, and the 'p' for 'b' in Lampin is a common exchange. Lambyn Clay played before the King at Westminster, at the great festival in 1306. The Flemish Lambert had a great influence on English nomenclature for a time, nearly as great as Boldwin. Later the 'b' has been dropped, and Laming or Lamming are the usual forms, especially in county Lincoln, where Lambert (owing to Flemish immigration) was exceedingly common in the surname period.
