Dalziel
Dalziel, Dalzell, Dezell, or Dalyell ( ) is a Scottish surname. Pronunciation The unintuitive spelling of the name is due to it being an anglicisation of Scottish Gaelic ''Dail-gheal'', meaning bright dale. The sound now spelled with a or is historically a lenited slender , which in Gaelic is pronounced (like English ). The English/ Scots form of the name was originally spelled with a yogh () as ''Dalȝiel''; this was later replaced with either a , the letter of the modern alphabet which most looks like yogh, or a , which more closely represents the sound. History The name originates from the former barony of Dalzell in Lanarkshire, in the area now occupied by Motherwell. The name Dalzell is first recorded in 1259, and Thomas de Dalzell fought at Bannockburn. The Dalzell lands were forfeited later in the 14th century, but regained through marriage in the 15th. Sir Robert Dalzell was created Lord Dalzell in 1628, and his son was further elevated in the peerage as Earl of Carnw ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
