Wilcot Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
(English) belonging to Wilcot (Wilts: 13th cent. Wilecote, Wilcote, 10th cent. ‘æt wil cotum-dat. pl.; Oxon, Salop; also Willicote, Clone.: A.D. 1400-1 Willicotes, Domesday Wilcote) [Old English cot (nom. and accus. pl. cotu, dat. pl. cotum), cottage. The first element is not so easy as it looks: it is perhaps natural to see in it a form of Old English wyll(a, wi(e)ll(a, a spring, well; but this is unlikely because ‘of abbodes wylle’ (from the abbot’s spring) occurs within a few words of the wilcotum quoted above from charter no. 748, A.D. 940, in ‘Cart. Sax’.: the form also precludes a pers. name; and Old English wil(l)a (compounded wil(l-), desire, pleasure, joy is improbable: I believe that wil here must represent a cognate of the Old Norse uíl, misery, wretchedness; (compounded) miserable, wretched—the inference being that the cottages in question were dilapidated] There has been confusion with Wilcock.
