Английская Википедия:Cavendish (surname)
Шаблон:Short description Cavendish (Шаблон:IPAc-en Шаблон:Respell) is an English surname, deriving from a place name in Suffolk. Etymologically, it is believed to derive from Old English Шаблон:Lang, a personal byname from Шаблон:Lang 'bold, daring', plus Шаблон:Lang 'enclosure; enclosed pasture'.[1][2][3] Spelling has varied considerably over time; the village was first recorded, in 1086 in the Domesday Book, as Шаблон:Lang,[3] and as a surname it appears as Шаблон:Lang in 1201,[3] Шаблон:Lang in 1242,[3] and Шаблон:Lang in 1302.[4] The Cavendish noble family has generally been considered to be a branch of the same Anglo-Norman baronial lineage as Gernon (of Essex, Suffolk, and Derby, originally Guernon of Normandy) and de Montfichet/Mountfitchet (of Essex, Middlesex, and London, originally Montfiquet of Normandy), though not without some critics of this hypothesis.[4] Shortened forms of the name (via Middle English spellings like Cauendish and Caundish) have included Candish and Cantis/Candis,[5][3] though the latter has also been independently derived from Candace/Candice, originally a Biblical given name.
