Jacox Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
This surname is derived from the name of an ancestor. 'the son of John,' from the nick. Jack and suffix-cock. Jack-cock was soon abbreviated to Jacock, and this became corrupted into Jeacock. The patronymic Jacocks, of course, became Jacox; compare Wilcock and Wilcox, and v. Cocks. Jancock is found early:
1397. Richard Jancock: Cal. of Wills in Court of Husting (2).
1669. Married — Edward Endell and Margarett Jeccockes: St. James, Clerkenwell.
1700.— Caleb Jacock and Elizabeth Thornhill: ibid.
1712. — James Sharplers and Elizabeth Jeacock: ibid.
V. Jaycocks.
Probably a diminutive of James. Jeakins seems to be of the same origin, and both proceed from "Jeams," the rustic pronunciation of the name.
Probably a modification of James, as Simcox is of Simon, Wilcox of William, &c.
