Graymalkin is a name invented by Shakespeare. It is thought to orignate from the words: grey meaning "the color grey" and malkin, a diminutive of the name Muad/Mathilda; an Old High German name coming from the words maht/mehtmeaning "might" and hild meaning "battle". The name takes on the meaning of grey cat or grey-haired woman.
Paddock comes from the Middle English parroc, meaning "enclosed land/enclosure, fence".
