Haimo
Haimo, also spelled Hamo, Heimo, Hamon, Haim, Haym, Heym, Aymo, Aimo, etc., is a masculine given name of Germanic origin. The Old French forms are Haimon, Aymon, Aimon, Aymes. It is a hypocoristic form of various Germanic names beginning with the radical ''haim-'', meaning "home". Appearance in modern Anglophone naming ''Haimo'' is the origin of a wide range of surnames, including English surnames like ''Hame'', ''Haim'', ''Haime'', ''Haimes'', ''Hains'', '' Haines'', ''Hayns'', ''Haynes'', ''Hammon'', '' Hammond'', and Fitzhamon. The Old French form ''Haimon'' was then combined with the diminutive suffix ''-et'', giving the pet-name ''Hamunet'', which in turn gave rise to the English name ''Hamnett'' and its variants.''The Oxford Dictionary of Family Names in Britain and Ireland'', ed. by Patrick Hanks, Richard Coates, and Peter McClure, 4 vols (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2016), II, p. 1183 .v.

Haimo Of Auxerre
Haimo of Auxerre (died c. 865) was a member of the Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Germain d'Auxerre. Although he was the author of numerous Biblical commentaries and theological texts, little of his life is known today. Haimo defended the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist and condemned those who considered that the Eucharist was just a "sign". This realism applied also to his ecclesiology. His exegetical commentary was an important source for Adso of Montier-en-Der's letter on the life of the Antichrist. Several texts, including those published in the ''Patrologia Latina'', previously attributed to Haymo of Halberstadt, are now believed to be his work. Haimo's exegetical writings are indexed as part of Burton Van Name Edwards's project, "The Manuscript Transmission of Carolingian Biblical Commentaries."

Hamnett
''Hamnett'', and its spelling variants ''Hamnet'' and '' Hannett'', is a personal name (now usually or only found as a surname). Etymology According to the ''Oxford Dictionary of Family Names in Britain and Ireland'', the modern name ''Hamnett'' originates in two medieval names, which came to sound the same around the sixteenth century. The first is the personal name ''Hamunet'': its use as a second name originated to indicate that a person was a child of someone called Hamunet. The earliest attested forms of this name occur in Old German, as ''Haimo''. This Old German name was borrowed into Old French, including into the Anglo-Norman dialect spoken in England, as ''Haim'', ''Haimes'' (in the nominative case), and ''Haimon'' (in the oblique case) — along with variant pronunciations and spellings, which became sources of English surnames like ''Hame'', ''Haim'', ''Haime'', ''Haimes'', ''Hains'', '' Haines'', ''Hayns'', '' Haynes'', ''Hammon'' and '' Hammond''.

Haymo Of Halberstadt
Haymo (or Haimo) (died 27 March 853) was a German Benedictine monk who served as bishop of Halberstadt, and was a noted author. Biography The exact date and place of Haymo's birth are unknown. He entered the Order of St. Benedict at Fulda as a youth, where the celebrated Rabanus Maurus was one of his fellow students. He went together with him to the Monastery of St. Martin at Tours to profit by the lessons of its great teacher, Alcuin. After a brief sojourn at Tours, both friends came back to the Benedictine house at Fulda, and there they spent most of their life previous to their promotion to the episcopal dignity. Haymo became chancellor to the monastery, as is proved by his records of its transactions, which are still extant. It is probable that owing to his great learning he was also entrusted with the teaching of theology in the same monastery, but there is no positive proof of this. He had been living for only a short while in the Benedictine monastery at Hersfeld, perhap ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Given Name
A given name (also known as a forename or first name) is the part of a personal name quoted in that identifies a person, potentially with a middle name as well, and differentiates that person from the other members of a group (typically a family or clan) who have a common surname. The term ''given name'' refers to a name usually bestowed at or close to the time of birth, usually by the parents of the newborn. A '' Christian name'' is the first name which is given at baptism, in Christian custom. In informal situations, given names are often used in a familiar and friendly manner. In more formal situations, a person's surname is more commonly used. The idioms 'on a first-name basis' and 'being on first-name terms' refer to the familiarity inherent in addressing someone by their given name. By contrast, a surname (also known as a family name, last name, or '' gentile'' name) is normally inherited and shared with other members of one's immediate family. Regnal names and re ...
