Feilding Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
V. Fielding.
An old spelling of Fielding. which has been either retained or resumed by the Earl of Denbigh's family. The orthography in Collins's Peerage, edit. 1768, is uniformly Fielding. According to Lawrence's Life of Henry Fielding, the elder branch of the family have always so spelt it. a statement which I very much doubt. Mr. L. adds: "It is related of the Novelist that being once in the company of the Earl of Denbigh, his lordship was pleased to observe that they were both of the same family, and asked the reason why they spelt, their names differently. ' I cannot tell, my Lord,' replied the Wit, ' unless it be that my branch of the family were the first who knew how to spell !'"
