Haines (surname)
Haines is a surname. Etymology According to the ''Oxford Dictionary of Family Names in Britain and Ireland'', the modern names ''Haine'', ''Hayne'', ''Haines'', ''Hains'', ''Hanes'', and '' Haynes'' all originate in four different medieval names, which came to sound the same. # The Middle English name ''Hain''. This is thought to have originated as a pet form of Anglo-Norman names such as ''Reynald'', ''Reyner'' and '' Rainbert''. # The personal name Hagan, which is itself of diverse origins. # The Old English word ''haga'' ('enclosure', Middle English ''hay''), in the oblique case form ''hagan'' (Middle English ''hayne''), whose use could have arisen from a locative epithet such as ''æt hagan'' ('at the enclosure'). # Perhaps the Middle English word ''heyne'' (and its variants, such as ''haine'', ''hayn''), meaning 'mean wretch, niggard'. The forms ending in ''-s'' show the addition of the genitive case ending, implying that the name-bearer was the child of a father called ' ...
