Pimblett Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
This surname is derived from the name of an ancestor. —the son of Pim', diminutive Pimelot; compare Hewlett for Huelot (Hugh), &c. I have no proof of this statement. It is a name of Cheshire parentage. Of course the 'b' in Pimblett, is intrusive. In America a corrupted form, Pimlock, has sprung up; compare Glasscott and Glasscock.
1561. Buried — Mergret Pymlot: Reg. Prestbury, Cheshire.
1562. Baptised — Robert Pymlot, ibid.
Richard Pimlott, of Buglawton, 1624: Wills at Chester.
Isabell Pimlott, 1648: East Cheshire.
= Pim (q.v.) + the French double diminutive suff. -el-et, -el-ot.
Pimelet, Pimelot, are now rare in France; but forms with a single diminutive suff., e.g. Pim(b)el, Pimet, are fairly common.
The medial b sometimes occurring in this name is the common post-m labial intrusion.
Prestbury and Marple were the principal homes of the Pimlotts in the 17th and 18th centuries (E.), and Prestbury still has the name. Pimblett is the present Lancashire form of the name. However, during the first half of last century a family of Pimlot owned the house and demesne of Barcroft, Lancashire (Whitaker's "Whalley").
It would seem that the Lancashire name of Pimblett is a corruption of the old Cheshire name of Pimlot, which is referred to under "Cheshire".
