Stoddard Family History
Stoddard Name Meaning
English (Northumbria): occupational name for a breeder or keeper of
horses, from Old English stod ‘stud’ or stott
‘inferior kind of horse’ + hierde ‘herdsman’, ‘keeper’. There
is a difficulty in deriving this name from Old English stod
in that stud is not recorded in the sense ‘collection of horses
bred by one person’ until the 17th century; before that it denoted a
place where horses were kept for breeding, but that sense does not
combine naturally with ‘herdsman’.
