A surname recorded in CD., and found in Dalkeith in 1689 (Laing). (1) It may be a descendant of Old English personal name Ealhmund, a name which appears in the Northumbrian genealogies as Alchmund (Sweet, Oldest English texts, p. 168). In the absence of intermediate links it is not safe to assume the connection. (2) It might also be from Almond, the river, which gives name to places, Almondbank, etc.
