Haywood Name Meaning
English (Midlands): habitational name from any of various places,
for example in Herefordshire. Nottinghamshire, Shropshire, and
Staffordshire, so called from Old English (ge)hæg
‘enclosure’ + wudu ‘wood’. It was a common practice in the
Middle Ages for areas of woodland to be fenced off as hunting grounds
for the nobility. This name may have been confused in some cases with
Hayward and perhaps also with the name Hogwood (of
uncertain origin, possibly a habitational name from a minor place).
