Wallington Family History
Wallington Name Meaning
English: habitational name from any of various places called
Wallington. Those in Berkshire, Hampshire, and Greater London are
probably all named from the genitive plural of Old English walh
‘foreigner’, ‘Briton’ (see Wallace) + tun
‘enclosure’, ‘settlement’. One in Northumberland was originally Old
English Wealingtun ‘settlement associated with
Wealh’, a personal name or byname. One in Hertfordshire was
named as the ‘settlement of the people of Wændel’, an
unattested Old English personal name, while one in Norfolk was
probably the ‘settlement of the dwellers by the wall (Old English
wall)’.
