After the Norman conquest people in England began to use the Norman way of showing who a person's father was: they added "fitz" to make Fitzwilliam, Fitzpatrick and other family names of this kind. Later still family names came from the kind of work done by people. Many family names first began when people were described as John the Smith, John the Farmer, John the Baker — or, more simply John Baker. One way to distinguish between one person and another was to say where they lived. In this way places also became family names. For example, if John lived near the water, he was called "John at water" or simply "John Atwater". Another John who lived by the brook could be described as "John Brook", and "John Fields" was not the same John as the one who lived by the bridge. Other names of this kind are Hill, Rivers, Waters, Forest. In many towns and villages in Britain today you can see how many English family names began. Ever the word "Town" is a well-known family name, and "Hampton", which is another family name, means "village". Yet another way to distinguish between one "John" and another was to give them nicknames. Nicknames are very personal. They describe physical or other characteristics and served in the past to distinguish one man, and then his family, from another. "Strong", "Short", and "Long" are only a few of the many names which first came from nicknames.
