Nott in my family tree
English: nickname for a bald man or one who kept his hair extremely close-cropped, from Middle English not bald (Old English hnot). The word was also used of pollarded cattle and trees, and the surname may perhaps in part be a metonymic occupational name for an herdsman or a topographic name for someone who lived by a stunted tree.
Patronymics: Notting, Notts.
