The lovelady Surname
lovelady Name Meaning and History
English: nickname from Middle English love(n),
luve(n) ‘to love’ + lavedi ‘lady’. Reaney describes this
as an obvious nickname for a philanderer; but perhaps it denoted a man
who loved a woman above his social status, given the connotation of
high status carried by the word lavedi.
