No doubt more modern representatives of 'Conan' would be found in directories had not Conan as a surname got confused with the more ecclesiastical Cannon or Canon. The final 't' and 'd' in Conant and Conand are excrescences. As a personal name Conan lingered on till the close of the 15th century. It is also interesting to notice that in the two counties (York and Lincoln) where we find the personal name was once in use we see the surname flourishing to-day.
