The first possible origin of the surname of Lamb is that it was an occupational name which referred to a keeper of lambs. An occupational surname was given to the original bearer because the surname described the actual occupation that they carried out. Occupational surnames often became hereditary because the son of the original bearer followed the father into the same job. This occupational surname of Lamb derived from the Old English, Pre 7th Century word of “lamb”. This is intuitively translated to mean an actual lamb. The next possible origin for the surname of Lamb was that it was given as a nickname for a very kind, temperate person who was largely inoffensive. This surname of Lamb may also have been given as a pet name or nickname for the Medieval English personal name of “Lambert.” This personal name comes from the Old German elements of the word “land”. This Old German word can be translated to mean “territory” and “berht”. Another Old German suffix that can be translated to mean “bright.” Another possible derivation of this surname is coming from the residence of the Pascal lamb, as in one William ate Lamb. The Motto is "Virtue et Fide" (By Virtue and Faith) Spelling Variations Common spelling variants or names with similar etymologies include Lambe, Lamby, Lambi, Lamba, Lambo, Lambu, Lamib, Lambh, Lamab, Lammb and others.At first the coat of arms was a practical matter which served a function on the battlefield and in tournaments. With his helmet covering his face, and armor encasing the knight from head to foot, the only means of identification for his followers, was the insignia painted on his shield, and embroidered on his surcoat, the draped and flowing garment worn over the armor. Between the 11th and 15th centuries it became customary for surnames to be assumed in Europe, but they were not commonplace in England or Scotland before the Norman Conquest of 1066.
