From Haupt to Hazzard
Hayes is the most common name in this section. It is of Irish origin and we will cover Irish names in a separate article.
Hawkins is the next most common name and it is of English origins. There are several theories as to its origins. They may all be true.
One theory is that the “kin” is a diminutive tacked on to “Haw”, which was a variant of Ralph. Eh? Well, the Middle English “Raw” was a version of “Ralph”.
Another theory is that its connected with the Old English word “heafoc” which means… a hawk.

Heath is the most common name in this section with over fifty-one thousand bearers in the 2010 census.
The English origins come from the Old English word for an area of uncultivated land with coarse grass and heather. We still call this a heath.
