There is also a secondary association of its first element with the Greek prefix '' archi-'' meaning "chief, master", to Norman England in the high medieval period. The form ''Archibald'' became particularly popular among Scottish nobility in the later medieval to early modern periods, whence usage as a surname is derived by the 18th century, found especially in Scotland and later Nova Scotia.
