Talk:Fullilove

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Surname: Fullilove Recorded in severall spelling forms including: Fullalove, Fullerlove, Fullilove and Fulleylove, this surname is English and medieval. It is an example of that sizeable group of early European urnames that were gradually created from the habitual use of nicknames. These nicknames were given with reference to a variety of characteristics, such as physical attributes or peculiarities, mental and moral characteristics, or to habits of dress and occupation. The derivation, in this instance, is from the Middle English phrase "full of love", the latter element being a development of the Old English pre 7th Century "luf". The nickname probably originally denoted a particularly amorous person, or perhaps one filled with religious ardour. The French cognomen "Pleynamur", from the Old French "pleyn d'amour", full of love, is recorded in the 1275 Hundred Rolls of Suffolk, and Fullilove may also be a direct translation of this pre-existing French name. Richard Playndeamours was noted in the 1284 Assize Court Rolls of Lancashire, and a William Ffuloflove in the 1332 Subsidy Rolls of Cumberland. In 1433, Roger Full-of-Love, of Quydenham, resigned the vicarage of Tottingham, Norfolk, and Ralph Full-of-Love was rector of West Lynn in that county in 1462. On May 14th 1649, John Fullilove and Anne Reve were married at St. Peter's, Paul's Wharf, London. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Henry Ffuloflove, which was dated 1327, in the "Subsidy Rolls of Cambridgeshire", during the reign of Edward 111, known as "The Father of the Navy", 1327 - 1377.

[edit] Fullilove - The Royal Line

There is much mystery and legend behind this ancient Old English name. Particularly due to some records stating that "Fullilove" is the first Tudor Royal Line. Henry VII is believed to have created his first bastard son with a young courtier "Bess Fullilove" at a remarkably young age. Bess Fullilove was a royal courtier for his mother, The Countess Of Richmond. He later produced seven children and many more bastards with no mention of the forgotten son! His first "accidental" son. Actual sole male air to the throne. Its believed that Bess Fullilove and her Royal bastard were banished, paid off and she was removed from all royal service. —Preceding unsigned comment added by User:Gene/nameshistor (talk • contribs) 17:26, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
