The melendy Surname
melendy Name Meaning and History
Of Scottish, Welsh, or English origin, but uncertain etymology. It
is recorded in the 17th century in Scotland and subsequently in
Boldre, Hampshire. Most probably it is a habitational name from Welsh
melin ‘mill’ + dy, lenited form of ty
‘house’. Place names of Welsh origin are found not only in Wales and
western England, but also in southern Scotland, where Welsh was spoken
in earlier centuries.
