 England
The name Addicott is from the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture of the Britain and comes from a baptismal name which means Adam. [1] As the naming tradition grew in Europe baptismal names began to be introduced in many countries. Baptismal names were sometimes given in honor of Christian saints and other biblical figures. There are very few Christian countries in Europe that did not adopt surnames from these religious figures. Early Origins of the Addicott familyThe surname Addicott was first found in Lancashire where Adecok Kay was listed in the Assize Rolls for 1246. Later Richard Hadecoc was listed as a Freeman of Leicestershire in 1226 and Robert Adekok was found in the Subsidy Rolls for Worcestershire in 1275. In Staffordshire, John Atkoc was found there in the Subsidy Rolls of 1327. [2] A popular name in Yorkshire, the Yorkshire Poll Tax Rolls of 1379 listed Robertus Adcok; Robertus Adkokson; and William Atcock as all holding lands there at that time.
