The history of the last name Angie

The surname Angie has its origins in the Angles, one of the Germanic peoples who settled in Great Britain during the Early Middle Ages, after the end of Roman rule in the 5th century AD. The name is derived from the Old English word "Englisc", meaning "English" or "Anglian".

The Angles were originally from the region of Angeln, a district located in what is now Schleswig-Holstein in northern Germany. They migrated across the North Sea and settled in parts of eastern and northern Britain, giving their name to the region that became known as "Engla land" or "Angleland", which eventually evolved into the name "England".

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name can be found in the Domesday Book, a manuscript completed in 1086 on the orders of William the Conqueror. It lists several individuals with variations of the name, such as "Angus" and "Anghus".

In the 12th century, the surname began to appear more frequently in written records, with spellings like "Angie", "Anguy", and "Anguish". These variations likely reflected regional dialects and the evolving nature of the English language at the time.
