Meaning of the Name

The history of this ancient Derbyshire family traces its ancestry as a family of Norman origin before the year 1100 and appears first in the ancient records in Derbyshire This a habitation name from a place in Derbyshire, which Ekwall suggests is from Olde English rantstigtun, 'enclosure (tun) by the steep (brant) path (stig)', or Brandsigingtun 'settlement associated with *Brandsige'is more likely. Brandsige, composed of the elements brand (Sword) + sige (Victory), is not attested as an Olde English personal name, but seems plausible.
