CAYNES: A Norman territorial name, perhaps from Cahaignes (Eure). Guido de Caynes was one of the witnesses to Earl David's Inquisitio regarding the lands pertaining to the church of Glasgow, c. 1124 (REG., p. 7). The Keynes were a well-known Norman family in Sussex.
From the Danish, Kiens; a personal name.
The ancient family of Keynes owned the manors of Stoke Wake, Candel Wake, and Hull, as well as estates in Wilts, during the 15th and 16th centuries. Still further back, they owned part of the manor of Combe Keynes during the 14th century (H.). This name was usually spelt Keynes, but sometimes Kaines, so that probably the present Caines' of this county hail from the same stock.
