The form of Howard. This noble historical name has been a sore puzzle to etymologists. A writer in the Quarterly Rev. vol. CII. says, the family "may be Saxon, may be Danish." They are more probably of Norwegian origin. Havard or Haavard was a common personal name among the Northmen. "It appears," says Laing, "to be the English name Howard, and left by them in Northumberland and East Anglia." The seventeenth-century genealogists laboured hard to prove a Norman origin for this illustrious race, but authentic records extend back no farther than the XIII, century, when the Howards rose into eminence in Norfolk; though Houardus, the Essex under-tenant of Domesday may be cited on that side.
