The proud and noble English surname of Nicholson strides victoriously through the withering sands of time from the era when powerful Anglo-Saxon tribes ruled all of Britain- they used it to denote a person whose father's name was "Nicholas". This masculine given (or personal) name derives from the Greek language-words meaning "conquer" and "people". Widely recognized for holding a family seat in Cumberland from early times, the family motto is "Through the camp to the stars!"

∙ 9y agoFirst found in the early records of Cheshire, where they held a family seat, the proud and noble English surname of Nichols was washed upon England's shimmering shores amidst the veritable tidal wave of Immigration immediately following the Norman Invasion of 1066 A.D. They were granted lands in recognition of their exploits in The Battle of Hastings, and developed the family motto of "Trust, but in whom take care!", with which to stride boldly through the gathering mists of time. The surname itself derives from the Greek language words that mean "to conquer" and "people".
