Last Name CRACKNELL

Summary/Contribute


Meaning Local or Nickname: A curious feature about English nomenclature is the number of surnames which seem inseparably connected with bread-baking. We do not refer to occupative names like Baxter, Baker, Waferer, etc, or local names like Backhouse or Bacchus. We speak of what seem to be nicknames taken from the loaf itself: Simnel, Blanchpain, and Whitebread. yet Blanchpain is local, and Whitebread, or Whitbread, may be a mere translation of it. A cracknel is a kind of crisp biscuit. Nevertheless the surname may be local, with suffix '-hall' or '-hill.'
