1904 Dictionary Of Names, Nicknames & Surnames E. Latham Antique Reference Book

A Dictionary Of Names, Nicknames & Surnames Of Persons, Places & Things
By Edward Latham
Published by George Routledge & Sons Ltd: London 1904 1st Edition

"A Dictionary of Names, Nicknames & Surnames of Persons, Places & Things by Edward Latham is an engaging early-20th-century reference work exploring the origins, histories, and curious associations behind thousands of names used throughout literature, geography, folklore, and everyday language. First published in 1904, it reflects the Victorian and Edwardian fascination with etymology and cultural inheritance, offering concise yet rich explanations that illuminate how names evolve, what they signify, and the stories they preserve. Latham's meticulous scholarship is enhanced by his ability to distil complex linguistic and historical material into clear, readable entries.

The volume ranges widely—from classical antiquity to contemporary figures of the early 1900s—making it both a practical reference tool and a window into the mindset of its era. Readers will find not only straightforward meanings but also anecdotes, literary associations, and cross-cultural notes that bring each entry to life. This edition, printed by George Routledge & Sons in London in 1904, remains a desirable example of early Routledge reference publishing and appeals particularly to collectors of antiquarian lexicons, etymology enthusiasts, and lovers of historical nomenclature."
